Checking Over Our 1988 Jaguar XJS Convertible
December 5, 2022
It may have only been in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop for a short while but classic car technician Scott has already been busy getting his assessment and inspection of our 1988 Jaguar XJS Convertible underway.
Scott noticed an oil leak during his checks so he spent some time looking for the source of the leak. He also gave the car a thorough looking at to look for any areas of corrosion. Any areas found have been reported and will be resolved while the XJS Convertible is in the workshop.
The diff and gearbox oil were also checked. Scott replaced the diff oil before replacing the broken grease nipple on the drive shaft.
Scott then went on to remove and clean the coolant level sensor before continuing his checks on the rest of the car.
Our 1988 Jaguar XJS Convertible will continue undergoing its checks and assessment as well as having any issues found resolved by our team of classic car technicians. Classic Jaguars like this are always enjoyable to have in the workshop so we will certainly make the most of having this one with us.
A New Carpet Goes In
October 14, 2022
Our 1969 Morris Minor 1000 Convertible has a new carpet!
Lydia cut and shaped the underlay before glueing it into the car. She then cut and fit the new carpet on top of this.
She also did some work on some of the components that will hold the front seats in place. Lydia sandblasted these to remove the rust and old paint before spraying them with primer. Once they were properly prepared, she then finished them off in a beautiful gloss black.
While she was in the car, Lydia also installed the door cards into the car so lots of progress has been made as work continues.
