[Healeys] Fw: I wish I would have done this before I put the engine in?

[Rich C]

Jerry,

Sounds like you haven't been there before. Some of the fender bolts won't be 
accessible from the fender side only. There's an inner wheel arch in the 
way, unless you can hire a fellow with arms and fingers like E.T. Also that 
would mean installing the clips onto the shroud flange which for most of the 
length has a J shaped flange running along the bottom edge.
Front shroud on or off is optional but easier with it off.
