Marketing Manager - Bridge Classic Cars
All of the brakes on our 1970 Jaguar E-Type Series 2 have been bled by classic car technician John. After bleeding the front brakes, John reassembled the front suspension. All the brakes were bled as it was noticed that the brake fluid looked high in water content.
John went on to clean and fit new bonnet bushes and pins. He rewired the loom to the bonnet as it was hard-wired to it previously – John had to cut the wires to remove the bonnet. Once the bonnet was refitted, the wiring was completed and connected to the inside of the bonnet and to the new connector plug.
The bonnet ram was cleaned and repainted before John went on to refit the stereo and interior. While doing this, he noticed that the horn and the main beam flash weren’t working. After checking and replacing the fuse, John found some ‘interesting’ wiring behind the dash which had been done prior to coming to us.
Exhaust blow was coming from the downpipes so these were removed, cleaned, and resealed. The thread of 3 studs had gone so these were removed and replaced with nuts and bolts instead. After tightening and testing, everything was working as it should.
