Our 1937 Vauxhall 25 Wingham Cabriolet is an exceptionally rare car. It is believed that there are only five surviving examples left worldwide, so each one is a very special vehicle.
We happen to own one of the remaining examples and it is currently in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.
After having interior work completed at Moore’s Classic Car Interiors, our team of skilled technicians have painted the underside, fitted a new exhaust system, made and fitted a boot floor carpet and corner covers for the bonnet, replaced a radiator hose, and cleaned the braking system.
During its time with Moore’s, it underwent work on the front and rear seats, door upholstery, headlining, and soft top.
Now that our rare Wingham is looking as good as it does, we thought it was only right to organise a photoshoot to show off a classic car that you likely won’t get the chance to see in person yourself, considering there are so few remaining anywhere in the world.
Nick took our Wingham out of the workshop and down to a more open area of our facility and, as you can see from the photos below, the results certainly go some way in showing just how beautiful and special this car really is.
It’s no secret that our 1937 Vauxhall 25 Wingham Cabriolet is a very interesting-looking vehicle. If you add its rarity to the mix, then you have a very special classic car that we have in the workshop.
Classic car technician Lydia has been working on our Wingham lately by making and binding the carpets. She has also made the cover for the spare tyre.
Lydia also made the corner covers for the bonnet of our Wingham.
Classic car technician Steve has been working on our 1937 Vauxhall 25 Wingham Cabriolet. While working on this rare and extremely good-looking classic car, Steve replaced the bottom radiator hose. He also went on to check and clean the brakes to ensure these are working exactly as they should be when our Wingham gets back out on the road.
Our 1937 Vauxhall 25 Wingham Cabriolet recently arrived in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop, and work has already begun on this rare but extremely eye-catching classic car.
Since it’s been in the workshop, classic car technician Mauro has been painting the underside of our Wingham as well as fitting a new exhaust system.
As well as Mauro’s work on our classic Vauxhall, Brian has been working on the boot shelf. Brian also made paper patterns for the boot floor carpet. He then moved on to making the patterns for the corner covers for the bonnet.
Brian removed the old seals on the A post-panels ready for new ones to be made. He made the new seals from vinyl and clear tubing. He glued the vinyl around the tube before stapling them to the A post-panels.
After cutting out the bonnet protection covers, Brian trial-fitted these before cutting them out of leather.
Carpet was fitted to the boot shelf and boot floor before work started on the window seals. After undoing the side window seal panels, Brian added plywood to the top section of the panel to make it thicker before recovering the side window panels.
