The Bridge Classic Cars in-house paint shop has been busy getting the 1969 Bentley T1 in with us for its full repaint.

Chris and Alan have been working their way through the car to strip the panels and trims to get them ready for stripping.

The first panel to be stripped back to bare metal is the vast bonnet of the luxury icon. Chris and Alan have carefully pulled all the paint from the bonnet and then begun to sand the panel back to bare metal in order to assess if any adjustments will need to be made to the piece.

Each piece taken off the car is catalogued, assessed and carefully stored for when the car is reassembled after its repaint.
