i spoke too soon. further investigation reveals that the present owner did
not have it rebuilt, but bought it off someone who had the work done at healey
surgeons in maryland. how much is them and how much the previous owner is at
fault i have been unable to determine. the fuel line comes up the exhaust
side, is bent sharply and brought up over the exhaust manifold, and lays over
the rear carb. rubber hoses for the carb overflow dropped down directly onto
hot exhaust and burned a hole in one of them. wiper switch miswired and shut
off in down position. no heater pipe so temp gage line lay directly on the
head and now does not work. had to order a new one. long screw in door
handles which put holes and scratches in glass. trunk lid seal on body
instead of lid and trunk will not close properly. this goes on and on and i
have no idea how much was done professionally and how much is previous owner
neglect. i am sorry i spoke before i had all the facts, but it p***** me off
when owners in our club pay good money and get shoddy work. i hate to see
healeys mistreated. again, sorry if i scared anyone. healeymanjim
