I=E2=80=99m going to show this series of laments to the man =
who=E2=80=99s taken over the restoration of my BN1 from the previous =
shop (its owner died last year). I had no idea, when I found the car in =
the local estate sale ads, what was hidden under four layers of paint =
and pounds of Bondo. Now I know why there was no front splash pan on =
the car=E2=80=94it was obviously biffed in the nose at least once.... =
The new guy is a bit rusty on body work (his rod & custom days being =
long behind him) but we=E2=80=99re both frustrated that NOTHING seems to =
fit! Thank heavens the previous shop finished all the structural =
repairs (the usual outriggers & outer sills). The new lower nose repair =
panel from AH Spares doesn=E2=80=99t begin to suit an original splash =
pan I bought, and is wider than the existing nose. Shop owner rants =
every time I phone or go see him. Maybe knowing he=E2=80=99s got lots =
of company will be a bit comforting!
