Classic car technician Brian has been working on the latest car available to win through Bridge Classic Cars Competitions, our 1963 Reliant Scimitar GTE. Brian made and replaced the dash top cover, ensuring that this classic car’s interior looks as good as possible for the lucky winner who is soon-to-be-found.

Brian started by making a paper pattern for the cover before using this to cut the cover out of vinyl.

The dash top was sanded smooth in preparation for glueing and was masked up. The back edge of the new cover was glued in place first followed by the top edge. Brian then folded the vinyl around the front edge and trimmed the excess material off.

Now that the new dash top cover is fitted, our Reliant Scimitar is ready to be won on Tuesday, 6th June.
