Remembering Hugh Mitchell
July 19, 2023
It is with great sadness that we have to announce the sad passing of Hugh Mitchell.
Hugh was a really good friend to Bridge Classic Cars and a personal friend to Gordon, with the two of them having spent many laughing hours together.
Hugh was an ex-car trader whose love of classics was not limited to one marque, although his true passion was for Rolls Royce and Bentley. He could often be heard saying that once you had driven a Rolls, you wouldn’t want to drive anything else!
Still with him was his Rolls Royce Spirit 3, Mercedes CLK Convertible, Metro Convertible, Mercedes Estate and his Classic Camper.
He attended all of our shows with his fellow Bentley enthusiast Steve and was always a smiling cheerful man with a cheeky, and sometimes sarcastic, glint in his eye.
We will miss you Hugh.
Hugh Mitchell 1936 to 2023
Storing A Range Rover
July 19, 2023
Yesterday, we welcomed a new car into our secure storage facility, The Hangar. The 2007 Range Rover Vogue SE will be staying with us for a while before its owner is ready for its return.
It will join a wide range of cars currently being stored with Bridge Classic Cars so it will have plenty of company while it is with us.
New Transmission Jack
July 19, 2023
The equipment in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop gets a lot of use so we are always keeping an eye on when new additions are needed.
Recently, classic car technician Jonn had the task of assembling our new transmission jack. Our new jack is a hydraulic vertical transmission jack with a telescopic twin-stage ram. It is fitted with a lowering control system (LCS) so we can safely lower the load precisely into position. Importantly, the safety overload valve provides added protection for the workshop team while they are using it.
Now that it is fully assembled and ready to be used, it will no doubt be busy very soon.
