The latest creation has emerged from the Bridge Classic Cars paint booth – the 1978 Mercedes 350SL.

Our paint and bodyshop manager Chris has been handling this part of the cars comprehensive and total restoration in laying down layer after layer of deep red paint work and then shooting the lacquer to an almost mirror finish straight out the gun.

As the car is unveiled out from under the paint booth lights, the execution of this pivotal part of the cars restoration is all here to see.
