Mauro inspected our 1987 Mercedes 500 SL and noted some rust present on the rear panel. He also identified a crack in the driver side front wing that will require welding to restore its strength and appearance – so the team are getting to work on getting this classic V8 droptop back to how it […]

Jonn recently carried out a pre-delivery inspection on our 1999 Aston Martin DB7 Vantage. He placed the battery on charge and reassembled the radiator cap. The tyres were inflated to the correct pressure and the wheel nuts torqued accordingly. A road test was then conducted to assess overall performance. Following the road test, Jonn carried […]
After Mauro stripped our 1987 Mercedes 500SL, he prepped it for primer. Once this is complete, any further paint can be applied.
The heater box assembly of our 1953 Aston Martin DB2/4 has now been put together and mounted onto the bulkhead. The gutter rail and rear quarter window chrome is also now fitted with both windows.
After a quick check over by Jonn, our 1959 Austin Healey 3000 was loaded up into the trailer and delivered to H&H in time for their next auction.
Dave carried out several tasks on our 1931 Austin Six. He began by checking and cleaning the brake shoes and drums to ensure proper operation. The spark plugs were removed, cleaned, and regapped, and the engine oil was changed along with the filter. A new gasket was made for the filter plate to ensure a […]
Greg has been doing lots of work repairing some quite substantial rust areas on our 1971 Fiat 500. Now that the repairs are mostly complete in that area, the car is looking in much better shape already.
While Mauro had various components of our 1969 Audi 70L in the paint shop, Anthony was looking at the heater matrix core. After an inspection, it was deemed necessary to replace the matrix, so this has now been done.
After the roof of our 1955 MG TC had been stripped, Mauro painted it in preparation for it to be fitted back onto the car.
Clinton has been making repairs on our 1955 Aston Martin DB2/4 Drophead Coupe. Once he had made the repairs, he checked the fit to make sure everything went together as it should.
A lot of people think we only work our magic on classic car restorations but that’s not the case…and it’s not always classic cars too. Here we are working on perfecting some paint issues on a VW Beetle. Will this be a future classic? Maybe so…but for now, it’s once again looking lovely.
Late last week, we welcomed back a previous car to the Bridge Classic Cars HQ. This 2014 Dodge Challenger 392 has come back to us to go into our secure and discreet storage facility, for its owner. It’s always a pleasure to see one of these stunning modern Challengers here at our Suffolk workshops.
Work progressed on our 1956 Jensen 541 with Jonn and John refitting the cylinder head, along with cleaning and refitting associated components and hoses, ensuring all were properly secured. The original head, having previously been skimmed, was refitted to the engine. However, upon refilling the fluids, a leak was observed at the rear of the […]

Greg and Ben have been working on our 1970 Aston Martin DBS 6 Vantage. The front suspension has been removed from the car. Ben and Greg worked on a side each and then worked together on the rear axle. They had to use heat in a couple of places to remove stubborn bolts. Mauro has […]
Lucky winner Gareth took delivery of his 1998 Mercedes SL500 recently. After a pre-delivery inspection, the car was loaded into our trailer and delivered to Gareth’s door. As one of our latest competition winners, everyone here at Bridge Classic Cars hopes he enjoys the car for many miles.

As this car is more cool and trendy we decided to shoot it on the Pad at Bridge Classic Cars to change up the scenery and have a more rugged feel to the shoot.

Last weekend, I took a trip, with the family to The Black Country Living Museum in Dudley. I can totally see why it is but describing this incredible place a museum does not do it the justice it deserves…it’s more like an experience! What a day it turned out to be! I have to admit […]
One of the two vintage Aston Martin DB2’s currently undergoing a total ground up restoration here at the Bridge Classic Cars HQ in Suffolk, our 1953 Aston Martin DB2/4 project is moving along quickly.
