We received the engine for our unique 1979 Arrow Ferrari Daytona Replica. This kit car is going to be a particularly large restoration with the process expected to take a while but we know for certain it will be worth it!
Ant, one of our fabricators has been working on stripping the body. It originally had a lot of stickers on the side which have now been taken off, allowing ant to prepare underneath for new paint. The current plan for this Daytona is to be painted Green – stay tuned!
This is what it looked like before we started the stripping process:
One of our technicians, Scott, has also been stripping down the Daytona by focusing on the doors and removing all chrome and lights.
Scott has also been working on the removal of the complete exhaust system and rear axle which will be refurbished.
Tom, another of our Classic Car Technicians has been sorting all the parts, which are a mix of new and old. He has ordered and filed all the components so we know what we have and if we need to get anything else. It also allows us to see which bits need refurbishing and cleaning.
On a trip to Bath recently, Charlotte, our Competitions Presenter, spotted this stunning 1989 Ferrari 400GT and just had to get some snaps!
Parked up at ‘The Royal Crescent’ in Bath City Centre, it was as the perfect backdrop for this beautiful classic. And how awesome does the blue paint look against that sky!
We’re always on the look-out for classics while we’re out and about. If you ever spot something interesting on your travels – send some pictures our way!
Friend of Bridge Classic Cars, Phil martin has sent us these wonderful pictures of his Ferrari Dino in Long Melford, Suffolk. These stunning vehicles were produced by Ferrari between 1967 – 1976. Named after Enzo Ferrari’s late son, these iconic classics have aged beautifully.
We love seeing classics such as this Dino out being enjoyed. Please do continue to send us in photos of your pride and joy, we love to see images like this, thanks Phil!

On Saturday 4th January 2020 we opened the doors of Bridge Classic Cars Hangar showroom for an exclusive car club coffee morning.
Until now, not many people were aware of this side to Bridge Classic Cars but our hangar is located within the grounds of the iconic RAF Bentwaters in Rendlesham. The private showroom is not often open to the general public but with the new year brings new ideas and it was a wonderful opportunity to open the doors, enjoy the open space and for like-minded automotive enthusiasts to get together to talk all things cars…with some bike and plane conversations going on too!
The sun was shining brightly for us on the day, which saw classics, vintage, sports and supercars from all over the region getting together to enjoy a thoroughly brilliant free event.
And we received some amazing feedback too so we are sure to be hosting many more events like this in 2020…
