[Healeys] Concours judging

[Chris Dimmock]

I disagree. We are building the cars the way they generally "should"  
have been built.
Overspray on spark plugs? Just a cost/ time saving measure. Tell me a  
professional engine builder who does that?
Paint drips on a chassis? Upside down? Who as a professional painter  
would claim that as typical of his best workmanship??
So - still no response to my question from all the concours  
critics .....
  "which BN1 would have won a concours in around June 1953 - given  
there were 5 entrants - all were original - and all are less than 30  
days old?"
And judged by their peers.
So - which car would win my theoretical concours?????

Think about it.
