Managing Director – Bridge Classic Cars
The fabrication shop at the Bridge Classic Cars restoration workshop has finished work on the drivers’ side front arch and sill of the 1969 Morris Minor Convertible, so it’s time to move onto the passenger side.
Once our fabrication team began looking into the corrosion around this area to try and make sure the door openings were within spec, they noticed that much like the other side the pillar and sill would move independently of each other.
To get to the bottom of this and make sure this part of the car is not only aesthetically sound but also structurally right, several areas had to be completely cut out in order to perform the repairs that were necessary.
After removing the affected material, the team then began the process of replacing the pieces with brand new panels either supplied or hand fabricated for the classic Morris Minor. Each of these has been cut and trimmed perfectly to size in order to be welded in and avoided any sort of heat warpage which may affect the alignment of any subsequent pieces.
