E-Type Gear Shift Cover

Classic car technician Brian has been working on the interior of our 1973 Jaguar E-Type Roadster Series 3. His focus has been on making some improvements to the gear shift selector. This work started with the removal of the old cover from the selector.

Brian cleaned up the metal frame before cutting out new vinyl and glueing this in place. The brushes were next to be fitted and the top trim panel was fitted to the surround.

New Speakers

Our 1976 Aston Martin AMV8 has had new rear speakers installed by classic car technician Brian.

After removing the old speakers, the new ones were wired in before being fitted into the car. As our AMV8 has been progressing through its restoration here in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop, it continues to look better and better and, with the addition of new speakers, it continues to make good progress.
