The team at Bridge Classic Cars have been making progress on our very special C-Type Replica.
The fabrication and body teams have worked on getting the front clamshell onto the nose of the classic racer. This was just a rough fitting of the piece onto the car along with the fitting of the newly finished wire wheels onto the hubs of the car. The team fit these up after the nose was put on the car to check clearances and the steering system for any binding or interference.
Then, the classic Le Mans racer was pushed out of the fabrication bay and moved on its wheels for the first time in the project. It was then taken around to our restoration workshops to be fitted with its custom made placement jig. This is being used to perfectly align the large front clamshell to the rest of the body during its adjustments.
