Sounds like typical sag of the body panels when the inner sill was being
repaired, in turn due to the car's structure having been supported in the
wrong places.

Hi Gary:
Howard in Ohio with a 1961 BT7 about to be reassembled . My question is
about
door fitment. Currently the car is in primer and about to be shot with the
Healey blue and white cove colors. We are having trouble with the door lines
on the passenger side door. The door gap is extremely tight on the top
section
of the rear part of the door. Will the articles from the AHCUSA answer these
fitment questions . We've tried door shimes, grinding and still have a tight
fit. We have spent hours on the door fitting and got the driver side perfect
but the passenger side is driving us up the wall, (door has been repaired
(welded) and yes it is the same size as the drivers door..
Do you think the articles will help? Healey Articles from AHCUSA or
Norm,David Nock's technical book be of help?
Thanks Howard in Ohio

Bob,
ll the suggestions you might need for reassembly have been contained in
oger Moment's series of articles in Austin-Healey Magazine, which are also
vailable to AHCUSA members in pdf form on the healey.org website.
For my money, Heritage is the very best for interior upholstery, seats,
oor panels, etc.
Gary
