DB2/4 Boot Boards
October 23, 2023
Classic car technician Brian has been busy working on our 1953 Aston Martin DB2/4.
After a lot of work went into stripping the interior of this rare classic, things continue to progress in its restoration journey in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.
Brian removed the boot boards from the car so he could clean up the metal strips. Once this was done, he cleaned up the metal trims and the rubber strips. These will be used later on in the restoration process.
A new dash tray backboard was made too and the interior light panel was cleaned up. Lydia also cleaned up the base of the seat with a heat gun and then thinners and a scotch brite pad were used to remove the black underseal.
Repairing DB7 Ceiling Cloth

Classic car technician Brian has been busy repairing the ceiling cloth of a 2001 Aston Martin DB7.
After removing the old glue from the headliner board and material, Brian repaired the damaged areas of the board.
He then glued the new foam to the headliner board and cut out all the holes required before fitting the new material.

Classic car technician Jonn has continued his work on our 1970 Lotus Europa in preparation for it to be won through Bridge Classic Cars Competitions very soon.
After working out where he was going to route the choke cable and how it would operate, Jonn drilled the dash route cable and secured it in the dash. He then connected it at the carburettor end and tested it.
The electric window switches were fitted to the centre console and wired in as Jonn refitted it. He then cable-tied the DLC cable up under the dash, refitted all trims and cleaned everything up.
The wiring to the offside door in the kick panel area was fitted along with grommets to the jacking holes in each sill. Jonn finally tightened the water hoses at the rear of the engine.
Suffolk Show 2024
October 23, 2023
The Bridge Classics Car team are looking forward to attending the Suffolk Show once again in 2024. It is a great opportunity for us to talk to other local businesses and see what it is we do so well in Suffolk. It is exciting to sample county produced products and discuss the potential of collaborating in future. Lily can’t wait to see the animals again this year and catch up with our friends on the East Anglian Air Ambulance stand.
