A New Roof Cover
April 21, 2023
Our 1990 Nissan Figaro has spent a short time in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop. It came in for our team of technicians to fit a new hood.
Classic car technician Brian started by undoing the roof and folding it back before removing the rear window inner trim. He then undid the headliner at the back of the car and removed the rear window panel. The front weather seal also had to be removed before the rear edge of the roof was undone too.
Brian removed the rear edge panel in order to repair the rust which was then painted black by Monty. Brain repaired the broken side wires and riveted them back on before glueing the front and rear edges. He went on to remove the cover from the rear window panel and found rust that needed to be repaired. There were a few areas of rust that had to be repaired during the work being completed.
New material was glued to the rear window frame and a hole was cut out for the window. The inner window surround was repaired before the frame was put back in.
As you can see from the photos below, once the repairs were complete and the new roof cover was fitted, our 1990 Nissan Figaro looks great and is ready to go back to its owner.
A Visit From An Oscar Winner
April 21, 2023
On Wednesday, we welcomed Oscar-winning Writer and Director, Mat Kirkby to The Atelier at Bridge Classic Cars.
Mat sat down with Craig to have a chat, and it was great to hear all about his work, his Oscar win, and his upcoming projects.
As an added bonus, Mat actually brought his award with him and it was exciting to see it up close. Some of the team even got to hold the 24-carat gold statue and pretend, at least for a minute or two, that we were award winners!
You will see more of Mat’s visit very soon…
Engine Back Together
April 21, 2023
Classic car technician Scott has been putting the engine of our 1964 Amphicar 770 back together again.
Now that is rebuilt, it will soon go back into our amphibious vehicle which continues to progress through its restoration journey in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.
First Look At A New Colour
April 21, 2023
Work is still ongoing for our 1976 Aston Martin AMV8. After the prep work was complete and after having primer applied, the first few parts of the car have been painted Deep Carriage Green.
As you can see from the photos below, the new colour looks great and we know that once the whole car is painted, it is certainly going to be an attention-grabber.
A new belly plate has also been made for our AMV8.
