Managing Director – Bridge Classic Cars
Our interior trim expert Brian has been spending time with our stunning 1973 Triumph TR6 this week.
The eye-catching magenta classic is undergoing a full restoration with us and currently is getting some special treatment in our in-house trim shop.
Brian begins with the underlay. “Starting with the rear section,” he explains “I mapped out all the underlay sections then positioned and glued them into place.”
He then began on the wheel arches, “I glued foam onto the wheel arch sections” Brian explains “then glued vinyl onto them, glued the rear bulk head carpet into place and fitted the wheel arch panels over the top”.
After fixing the cockpit panel, Brian turned his attention to the side panels of the car. “I added material to the inside posts and glued in these triangular panels.”
Brian then fitted the carpet sections for both the sills and rear foot wells. Finishing off by fitting the front foot well carpets.
We are obsessed with this colour combination, magenta paint with a biscuit interior. Our customer selected these colours, as the car arrived with us totally different! It’s one of the many exciting parts of bespoke classic car restoration.
What colour combination would you choose?
