Work is continuing on the 1978 Mercedes 350SL here at the Bridge Classic Cars restoration workshops here in Suffolk. The bodyshell was taken away to be stripped once more before it heads over to our paint and body team to begin their work on getting the car looking like new.

Whilst the bodyshell had been sent away, our paint and body technician Adam has been working on getting some of the seperate bolt on panels in primer ahead of the bodyshell going under the gun very soon.

With the 350SL’s bodyshell back our restoration workshops here in Pettistree, our paint and body manager Chris could really dive into the bodyshell with our rotating jig, and get in to some spaces that are tricky with the car on its wheels.
