Hi Michael

Attached are two photos of my front license plate position and bracket and
the oils cooler holes in the shroud below.
(for others see www.temco.com.au/johnshomepage/Austin_Healey)

Please ignore the paint and panel damage around the oil cooler holes. You
won't have this problem in Maryland. The damage was caused by a juvenile
kangaroo about dusk on the way to an Austin Healey Club Winter Woolies
Weekend in the jarrah forests south of Perth.

Cheers from west oz

John Rowe
