The 1970 Bristol 411 is currently in the Bridge Classic Cars restoration workshop for a left-hand-drive conversion.

The next step in the conversion is removing all of the steering components on the classic Bristol. Our technician Paul has been working on methodically removing, cataloguing and storing any and all parts that have come off the car in case the car should ever want to be returned to right-hand-drive. The next piece to come out was the steering idler, which can only be removed after the steering box had come out of the car.

The steering idler will be inspected and catalogued like the other pieces from the car and put into storage.
