[Healeys] Fasteners Securing Cardboard Around Fuel Filler Pipe, BJ8

[Mark Schneider]

Sirs,

Like Don Newman, I know the history of My car.  I bought it from the  
original owner forty years ago so I know the fasteners in the boot are  
the original hardware.  They are Pozidrive.  I guess that means the  
Concours Committee has relaxed the requirement and will accept a look- 
alike Phillips head???
