Our 1976 Triumph Spitfire has continued to make progress through the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.
Rob has fitted the vinyl trim around the screen frame and fitted the windscreen and top capping. He then fitted the lower steering column and the RH door.
While Rob was doing that, Alan was prepping, sealing and raptoring the bonnet, wheel arches, and lower bonnet panels ready for colour.
Bench Seat Back
Yesterday, Lydia was preparing the seat backrest that Darin, from Ashbocking Joinery has kindly made for us.
This involved replacing the springs back to their original position and hand sewing them into place. Next came various layers of cotton and horsehair padding, and then working out her fabric allowance with a scrap piece of fabric. This meant that Lydia could then cut the leather.
Welding
Technician Chris has been busy with his work on our 1951 Austin Devon Pickup.
He welded a repaired panel as well as fabricated the floor sections for this classic vehicle.
A New Arrival
We have recently welcomed our 1985 Austin Mini Mayfair Berkeley into the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.
Since its arrival, technician Neil has been completing some repairs as well as looking at the brakes and the exhaust.
He also investigated an oil leak.
There is quite a story behind this car so we are looking forward to it joining our collection.
