SS100 Progress

Technician Julian has been working on our 1939 Jaguar SS100.

He has fitted new rear leaf springs as well as the reconditioned shock absorber. He has also fitted the lower side panels ready to be painted.

SS100 Lights And Signals

The indicators weren’t working correctly on our 1939 Jaguar SS100. They were stripped and checked and diagnosed as needing a new flasher control unit. This was fitted and all the lights were tested fully, then the interior trims and carpets were refitted and checked.

SS100 In The Paintshop

The Bridge Classic Cars PaintShop has been home to our very special 1939 Jaguar SS100.

While in there, Chris and Mauro have been working on the rear wing. Mauro prepped and primed the rear wing before fixing the dent on the wing.

Chris then painted the rear wing.

Our SS100 Delivered To Holyhead

Our 1939 Jaguar SS100 may not have been with us very long but, it has now left the Bridge Classic Cars workshop and has been delivered to Holyhead to its owner.

It will now travel to Ireland where it will be driven across the country and enjoyed as it should be.

Two Jaguars Let Loose in The Workshop

Two beautiful classic Jaguars have arrived at the Bridge Classic Cars Workshop today. Both very different cars, but both undeniably special examples.

Firstly we have the 1963 Jaguar SS100. In for a couple of minor repairs highlighted by a MOT test. This lovely classic has already received a new steering boot and a new air filter. To fit within the SS100’s engine bay, Paul has modified the filter slightly to perfectly fit. Superb work, Paul!

The 2nd Jaguar of the day is this rare XJRS TWR. Featuring a Jaguar 6.0l V12 Engine, this big cat certainly can roar.

The XJRS is in the workshop for a general health check, as well as investigating some unwanted noises coming from the underside of the car.

The TWR in this Jaguar’s name stands for Tom Walkinshaw Racing. TWR were a race team and engineering firm founded in 1976 by touring car racer Tom Walkinshaw.

TWR became associated with Jaguar in 1982. Partnering with the successful entry of the Jaguar XJS into the European Touring Car Championship.

TWR and Jaguar formed JaguarSport initially to build tuned versions of Jaguar road-cars, such as this gorgeous XJRS. They also produced upgraded versions of the XJ220 and XJR-15 sports cars at a new facility at Bloxham. By 1994, JaguarSport had been liquidated, with the Bloxham factory being overhauled for production of Aston Martin automobiles.
