Lots of progress has been made with our Ford Transit MKII Tipper lately. Not only is its restoration journey going well, it now finds itself in a new home of sorts.
Now that The Classic Lounge is almost finished and ready to open, the building formerly known as The Atelier is becoming an extension of our very busy workshop.
As you can see from the photos below, our Transit looks great and will continue to look better and better as it spends more time in the new workshop.
Steve has dismantled and cleaned the fuel sender in our Ford Transit Tipper MKII. This cured the bad contacts before the top part of the sender was zinc-plated.
Various components of our Ford Transit MKII Tipper have been in the Bridge Classic Cars paintshop with Chris as he has been applying dtm satin black to them.
Classic car technician Steve has been completing various tasks on our Ford Transit MKII Tipper.
The hand brake pivot bolt and rear brake load valve adjuster were both seized and had to be cut off and removed using oxygen and acetylene torch. A new hand brake pivot bolt was fabricated using a high tensile bolt.
While Steve was doing this, Mauro was painting various components of our classic Transit in the paint shop.
The bumper of our Ford Transit Tipper MKII is all painted and now finished in a satin clear. The rear suspension springs have also been in the paintshop and have had black dtm applied.
