March 6, 2023
Our 1959 Jensen 541R has continued its transformation with more paintwork being completed. This time it was the sill covers and bonnet flap being painted by classic car technician Al. Prior to this, Al also prepped and painted the wheel arches.
While Al was painting the bonnet flap and sill covers, classic car technician Chris was applying Raptor paint to some of the panels. The bonnet, boot lid, and wings also had Raptor applied before the fixings and support were re-fitted.
As more of this rare classic car gets painted, it is becoming more and more obvious that it will be a stunning car once its restoration is complete.
Painting Jensen Parts
February 27, 2023
Various parts of our 1959 Jensen 541R have been with classic car technician Mauro in the Bridge Classic Cars paintshop.
The wheels of our rare Jensen have been primed while other components have been painted black.
Now that the chassis has been painted, with the addition of these newly painted parts, progress continues to be made on our 1959 Jensen 541R.
Work Continues On Our 541R
February 27, 2023
Our 1960 Jensen 541R has stayed under the care of classic car technician Rob.
Rob continued his work making and welding panels for the right-hand rear wheel arch. Once this was finished, he began the process all over again on the left-hand side of the chassis. This involved more cutting and welding.
Like the right-hand side rear wheel arch, the left-hand side also needed to be fabricated and welded into place.
The chassis of our 1960 Jensen 541R is still undergoing work and, with more repairs needed, it is likely to stay with Rob for a bit longer before its able to move on with its restoration.
Highlights Of A Paint Job
February 20, 2023
Our 1959 Jensen 541R has recently been painted green. While the car looks great in its painted state, it’s always exciting to see some of the steps in more detail that led to the finished paint job.
Classic car technician Al took some photos during the process and, as you can see from the photos below, his hard work and skill have led to a job well done.
Once Al had finished painting our 541R, he went through the process of flatting using a 1500 trizact followed by a 3000. The car was then polished and cleaned ready for fitting up very soon.
Repairing Old Repairs
February 20, 2023
Since the chassis of our 1960 Jensen 541R has returned from sandblasting, classic car technician Rob has found some old repairs that need to be cut out and corrected. These repairs have clearly been done at some point in the car’s life before it found its way into the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.
Now that it is with us, and in Rob’s capable hands, the old repairs will soon be rectified and the chassis will be in much better condition.
Rob started with the right-hand rear wheel arch. He has been cutting out the bad repairs from previous work so he can then return the car back to its original condition.
A new wheel arch was made and welded in before more bad repairs were cut out and removed.
Work continues to bring our 1960 Jensen 541R back to life. The poor past repairs have provided an additional challenge to Rob and the rest of the workshop team but, once resolved, progress will continue to be made on this beautiful classic car.
It’s Going Green
February 17, 2023
Classic car technician Al has been giving our 1959 Jensen 541R a new coat of paint.
After he prepped the freshly primed body, Al mixed the paint using the paintshop scales to make sure the paint was exactly the right consistency to use on the car.
Once the paint was mixed, Al made sure the body was completely clear of dust and debris. It was at this stage that the paint began to be applied. After the first coat of paint was on and fully dried, a second full coat was added.
A drop coat was then applied to help get rid of any patchiness that may be present in the new paint. Finally, 2 coats of lacquer were applied (5 minutes apart) and the car looked great in its new green colour.
Seat Base And Rims
February 15, 2023
Our 1959 Jensen 541R continues to make progress through its restoration journey here at Bridge Classic Cars. Recently, classic car technicians Mauro and Brian have been working on this rare vehicle.
Brian’s focus was on the interior of the car. Specifically, the front seats. Brian has been making the new front seat base frame wood sections. While Brian was doing this, Mauro was focused on the wheels of our Jensen 541R. The rims were given a coat of primer ready to be painted later on.
Jensen Progress
February 13, 2023
Our 1959 Jensen 541R has had more work on its interior completed recently.
Lydia finished the base cushions for the front seats, covered the pair of rear quarters, made the headlining, covered the rear centre panel, and covered the glovebox door.
While Lydia was working on the interior of our classic Jensen, Al was conducting his final checks that the chrome surround and flap fit the repaired bodywork before putting it into primer. The sills and bonnet were also primed.
Chris was also working on our 1959 Jensen 541R. His focus was on the fibreglass roof.
Primed And Ready
February 7, 2023
Classic car technician Al has been applying primer to various parts of our 1959 Jensen 541R.
The underside of the bonnet was the first to have epoxy primer applied before the outside of the bonnet had its primer applied too.
Once the bonnet was complete, Al turned his attention to the doors, boot, wings, and body of this rare classic car. All of these had high-build primer applied.
Work continues on our classic Jensen 541R as it makes progress through its restoration journey in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.
Prep For Sandblasting
February 6, 2023
Our 1960 Jensen 541 is back in the workshop and in the very capable hands of classic car technician Rob.
In preparation for sandblasting, Rob has removed the body and the roof frame.
With a history like this car has, it is exciting to see it progress through its restoration journey and be one step closer to being back on the road (even though there is still a long way to go yet).
More Interior Work
January 30, 2023
Our 1959 Jensen 541R has had more interior work completed by Lydia recently.
Lydia has continued her work on the seats which are now almost complete. Once the front base cushions are finished and fitted, the seats of our Jensen 541R will be ready to be installed in the car.
Alongside her work on the seats, Lydia also made the cubby box as well as completing work on various panels.
Brian has also been doing some work on the seats too. He bolted the front seat base frame to the wood section before trial fitting it into the seat tub. Brian then went on to make the patterns for the top wood sections and cut these out. The top wood sections were then fitted to the base seat frames.
Brian went on to add the wood sections to the inner edge of the base frame to allow the cover to be stapled in place later on. The base seat frames were then put into the seat base tubs.
Our 1959 Jensen 541R continues to make good progress and it will be interesting to see it continue through its restoration journey with us.
Wheel Arches Primed
January 23, 2023
Our 1959 Jensen 541R has recently had new seat covers made, and lots of prep work completed ready for it to move on to the next stage of its restoration journey.
Classic car technician Al has been looking at the wheel arches of this rare classic vehicle and has applied polyester primer to them.
Now most of the car has been primed, it is almost time to paint it.
Our 1959 Jensen 541R continues to make good progress and work will continue until it is ready to drive out of the workshop and back onto the road.
Seat Covers And Panels
January 16, 2023
Our 1959 Jensen 541R has had more interior work completed by Lydia over the last week. She has now finished putting the new covers onto the two front squabs. Lydia has also finished covering the two front base tubs too.
Now that new covers have been made and fitted, Lydia has turned her attention to making the new foams for the rear squab and the rear base frames.
While Lydia was working on the interior of our Jensen 541R, Chris was continuing his filler work on the body. Several panels were removed in preparation for their final checks and so that they were ready for primer.
Classic car technician Al has also been working on our 541R. He repaired the off-side A post before masking up the body ready for its polyester primer to be applied. Primer was applied and, as you can see from the photos below, things are looking good!
Now that the primer has been applied to our classic Jensen, it can move on to the next stage of its restoration journey and be another step closer to being back out on the road.
Prep Work
January 9, 2023
Our 1959 Jensen 541R has continued to make progress through its restoration journey over the last week or so. Lydia has been hard at work finishing her prep work on some metal parts of this rare classic car. Lydia’s prep work is to get these components ready to be painted at a later date in the Bridge Classic Cars paintshop.
In addition to the work she completed on some of the metal parts of the car, Lydia also spent some time shaping the new foam which will eventually be part of the door armrests, ceiling pad, and dash pad. The centre panel also got cleaned up during the process.
As well as Lydia’s prep work, Monty also did some welding work to repair some of the components Lydia went on to prepare for painting.
The backboards of our 1959 Jensen 541R had new covers fitted by Lydia too. She sewed piping around the covers as well as sewing the pockets up and onto the backboards too.
Getting Back Together
December 19, 2022
Progress has continued on our 1959 Jensen 541R over the last week. After previously painting the chassis, classic car technician Mauro continued his work painting various components that will eventually be re-attached to the newly painted chassis.
While Mauro was painting, Brian continued work on the car’s interior. Although none of the interior components are actually inside the vehicle at the moment, preparation has already begun for things to be installed later on in the restoration process.
Brian fitted the metal brackets to the front and rear door cappings as well as fitting metal brackets to the rear quarter panels too.
Classic car technician Rob was also working on our 541R by bolting the roof frame back onto the chassis. Rob also bolted the body back onto the chassis as well. This has gone a long way in bringing the frame of our 1959 Jensen 541R back together and it is now much more recognisable.
Another big milestone that was achieved this week was the fibreglass work being finished on the car. Once this was done, Chris was able to apply epoxy and inside seal the body. Chris went on to remove the old paint from the bonnet, as well as paint more components, before moving on to putting the panels back onto the chassis ready to be panel levelled.
Chris ultimately put the body of this rare classic car back together and it is now ready for final gapping and panel levelling before moving on to the next stage of its restoration journey.
Our 1959 Jensen 541R has come a long way this year and, as 2022 draws to a close, we are very excited to see progress continue in the new year. By this time in 2023, this classic car will look very different to how it does now (and extremely different to how it did when it first arrived in the workshop).
Sandblasting, Repairs, And Painting
December 12, 2022
Our team of classic car technicians continue to work on our 1959 Jensen 541R.
Lydia has been stripping the old foam, leather, and vinyl off various interior pieces and prepping some of the metal work for repainting by sandblasting and sanding to remove rust, old paint, and glue.
While Lydia was working on the interior of our 541R, Al was continuing his work on the fibreglass bonnet. After his previous repairs on the underside of the bonnet, he cleaned the underside ready for the rest of his work to be completed. Once he had done this, he continued with his repairs. Al found some previous repair work that had been completed at some point in the car’s past. These repairs did not meet Al’s high standards so, despite making his repair work more challenging, he repaired the bonnet in full, including re-doing the previous bad repairs.
Mauro has also been working on our 1959 Jensen 541R. He has been refurbishing multiple components of this rare classic car. Alongside his refurbishing work, Mauro also painted the chassis too.
As work continues on our 541R, we look forward to seeing progress continue to be made as it moves through its restoration journey here at Bridge Classic Cars.
Our 1957 Jensen 541R Returns (Briefly)
December 5, 2022
We recently welcomed our 1957 Jensen 541R back into the Bridge Classic Cars workshop.
It was only a short visit but our team of classic car technicians was still able to resolve a couple of issues the owner was experiencing.
Classic car technician Dave turned his attention to resolving a rattle coming from the driver’s door of this rare classic car as well as investigating and resolving an oil leak.
Dave resolved both issues and, as quickly as it arrived, our 1957 Jensen 541R was leaving us once more. As you can see from the photos below though, its owner, Jeorg, was very happy with the quick turnaround.
Having any Jensen in the workshop is something we thoroughly enjoy, but having one as beautiful as this one is extra special and we hope to keep updated with its adventures in the future.
The Restoration Continues – 1959 Jensen 541R
December 5, 2022
Our workshop team have been hard at work with the restoration of our 1959 Jensen 541R.
Lydia has been stripping various interior parts ready for them to be re-covered and fully restored to their former glory. Brian has also been working on the interior of our Jensen 541R. He repaired the rear quarter panel top wood section. He did this by first marking out the side window surround panels and rear window top panel. He then cut out the new panels and the new rear quarter panel wood.
These wood sections were screwed together to form the rear quarter top panels. Brian then cut out the rear quarter side panels from mill board before bending the panel to shape. He then glued and stapled the side panels to the top panels.
The kick panels were then marked and cut out as were the glovebox end panels. Brian then went on to cut out the footwell panel and rear boot trim panel.
While Lydia and Brian were working on the interior of this rare classic car, Al was repairing and rebuilding the underneath of the bonnet.
Classic car technician Paul prepared the front upright bearing spindle for crack testing too.
Chirs has also been working on our Jensen 541R. He has been completing fibreglass work, filler work and panel gapping. Chris also removed the panels from the chassis so that it can be sent away for sandblasting.
Some components of our 1959 Jensen 541R have been refurbished and will soon be ready to be re-installed in the car as it continues to make good progress through its restoration journey.
Interior Work – 1959 Jensen 541R
November 29, 2022
The body of our 1959 Jensen 541R has undergone lots of restoration work recently. With classic car technician Rob modifying the front chassis, welding, and rebuilding various parts of this rare classic car, it has certainly made lots of progress on its restoration journey.
As work continues on the external elements of the car, classic car technician Brian has turned his attention to the interior. In particular, Brian has been working on the seats that will eventually help make the inside of our 541R as impressive as the outside.
Brian’s work started by cleaning the old foam and glue from the front seat frames. He could then fit the new foam into the front seat base tubs. Foam was fitted to the front edges and the inner rear edges before the front squab seat side foams were cut and glued in place.
The centre foams were also cut, fitted, and glued into place before the centre pad foams and wadding were added to the side foams. New backboards and new base foams were also cut.
Brian went on to cut and glue the front edge foams and trimmed them to shape. The wood for the seat base frame was also cut to the right size.
Our 1959 Jensen 541R is a very rare car. We have restored many Jensens in our workshop and we definitely enjoy seeing cars like this one get better and better the longer they are with us.
Jensen 54R1 Modifications
November 22, 2022
Classic car technician Rob has, once again, been working hard on our 1959 Jensen 541R.
Rob modified the front chassis of this classic car to fit the chassis cross-member. Making sure everything fits together perfectly is extremely important so, sometimes, modifications need to be made in order to get cars like this back on the road again.
Once the modifications to the chassis had been complete, Rob went on to repair the skin fitted on the right-hand door. Once this had been repaired, he was able to fit the door onto the car. He then fitted the right-hand door skin and door too.
Rob needed to make some additional modifications to the bonnet hinges as well. He made some alloy spacers which helped him fit the bonnet to this rare 541R.
The modifications weren’t quite complete just yet though, as Rob had to also modify the boot lid to ensure it fit the car perfectly.
This type of work, where our classic car technicians have to handcraft and modify components in their restoration work, shows how skilled our workshop team is. Technicians like Rob are able to complete this type of work only because they have years of experience to call upon and they are well-equipped to restore a rare car like this from the ground up.
Classic car technician Rob will continue his work on our 1959 Jensen 541R and we are very excited to see it continue to make progress through its restoration journey. Seeing classic cars like this evolve from an empty chassis to the final product that drives out of the workshop is an exciting process to see.
We are looking forward to seeing the rest of the Jensen restoration journey take place and we hope to see this beautiful classic car back with its owner and on the road in the future.
Lots Of Welding
November 15, 2022
Classic car technician Rob has continued his work on our 1959 Jensen 541R. Following the return of the doors from the sandblasters, Rob has been able to make some good progress with the restoration of this rare classic car.
His attention was first placed on the rear wheel arch filler panels. These were made and welded in place. Rob went on to weld the A and B posts too before adjusting and fitting the left-hand sill and panels.
The welding continued with the battery cradle being welded in along with the left-hand inner C panel being welded in as well.
Rob’s attention then turned to the doors of our 541R. Unfortunately, there were areas of corrosion which needed to be cut out and removed. Fortunately, though, Rob has the experience and the skillset required to make new panels and weld these in.
With less than 200 of these beautiful cars being made, the restoration work that is done here at Bridge Classic Cars by our highly skilled technicians, like Rob, is extremely important. As so few of these classic cars were made in the first place, having one less in the world is never a good thing.
Work will continue on our 1959 Jensen 541R and it will continue to make progress back to its former glory before eventually driving out of our workshop and back onto the road.
Saying Goodbye To Our 1958 Jensen 541R
November 1, 2022
The time recently arrived for us to say goodbye to our 1958 Jensen 541R.
This beautiful classic car came to us from Holland and spent a few months with us while our team of classic car technicians bought it back to life. It leaves us looking very different to how it looked when it first arrived at our workshop and we are very happy to see it move on to its next chapter.
More Progress…
October 28, 2022
Since the chassis of our 1959 Jensen 541R has been back in the workshop, classic car technician Rob has been busy rebuilding the car.
He has already bolted the front wheel arches and the mounting frames into place and he has also started work on fitting the body and the roof back together again.
The car already looks very different than it did when it first arrived at the Bridge Classic Cars workshop and it will continue to change as it moves along its restoration journey.
Putting Things Back Together
October 26, 2022
Now that the chassis of our 1959 Jensen 541R is back in the workshop, classic car technician Rob has started the process of putting everything back together again.
This will obviously take some time and it will require a huge amount of patience and skill. Fortunately, our classic car technicians have both of these so good progress is being made.
As you can see from the photos below, Rob has fitted the sills back onto the car and he has refitted and welded the bulkhead onto it too.
Chassis Back In The Workshop
October 25, 2022
The chassis of our 1959 Jensen 541R has arrived back at the Bridge Classic Cars workshop. It has been moved from our storage facility, The Hangar, ready to begin the next stage of the restoration process.
Now it is back with us, our classic car technicians will carry out a thorough inspection of it before more parts of the main body are put back together.
The doors of this classic car have also been stripped down and sent off for sandblasting.
More Carpet, Side Panels, And Some Cleaning
October 13, 2022
Classic car technician Brian has continued his work on the interior floor of our 1958 Jensen 541R. After attaching the transmission tunnel cover, he then refitted the tunnel into the car before fitting the carpet.
He then went on to fit the side panels, and refit the rear seat, before giving the new carpet a good clean.
While Brian was working on the carpet, Lydia was re-covering one of the panels that had to be adapted following an adjustment made to the fibreglass frame underneath it. She covered this with carpet before binding the edges with vinyl.
Jensen Bonnet Strips
October 10, 2022
Our classic car technician, Clinton, has been making parts that will ultimately go on to be fitted into one of our ongoing Jensen projects.
The bonnet strips he made can be seen in the photos below.
Boot Carpet And More
October 10, 2022
For the last few weeks, the interior of our 1958 Jensen 541R has been getting lots of attention from Lydia and Brian. Recently, Lydia turned her attention to the boot of the car – specifically, the boot carpet.
After lots of measuring, cutting, making patterns, and double-checking everything, Lydia was able to get the boot carpet fitted and looking good.
Restoring a classic car isn’t just about getting it running and making the bodywork look good. At Bridge Classic Cars, every part of the car gets the same levels of attention, including areas that most people won’t see – like the boot.
While Lydia was busy working in the boot, Brian was busy completing more work on the interior of the car. He fitted carpet to the front and rear footwells, the bulkhead, and trial fitted the handbrake carpet.
Brian also fitted the sliding covers to the kick panels and cut the sound deadening for the transmission tunnel before glueing it to the tunnel and cutting out the required access holes.
More Jensen Parts
October 5, 2022
Classic car technician Paul has been making several different parts that will eventually be used on one of our Jensen restoration projects.
These include parts such as seat runners, bonnet supports, gutter trim, and door frames. All of these will go on to be further prepped before being installed in one of the cars.
Paul also tested Jensen heater box fans as well as cleaning them, painting them, and reassembling them.
Progress, Progress, Progress
October 5, 2022
Brian and Lydia continue to work on the interior of our 1958 Jensen 541R.
Lydia has been busy covering the remaining door card as well as covering the back of the rear squab with black vinyl to give it a neater and more appealing look. She also covered the metal frame that Clinton made, which is the frame that will go in the middle of the rear seats.
Lydia then cut out the carpets for the footwell of the car before moving on to covering the metal for the air vent sliders.
The task Lydia is currently working on is spray painting the metal rails that the air vent sliders will go on.
Meanwhile, Brian has been making new rear cappings, and glueing foam to the cappings before covering them in vinyl.
He also cut the strip of wood that went on to be screwed to the body of the car so the cappings could be attached. Brian then installed the door panels as well as making the patterns for the footwell sound deadening and carpets.
Brian also fitted the door panels before fitting the carpet and sound deadening he made the patterns for earlier.
One extra job that Brian did was to add wood ends to the ceiling pad to make it fit perfectly.
