[Healeys] County, Another part snafu

[David Nock]

You assume that this had to be a County error. We have had many times  
that things are boxed wrong from many suppliers.  It is always  
possible that they were a returned set and the previous purchaser had  
ordered the wrong size and then returned them in the wrong box.

We all must realize that if County who is actually part of XRN which  
a company in England was not producing the parts they are we would  
not be driving our cars.

This problem is not just in our cars. I have done a High Performance  
67 Mustang for my son. Some of the parts that i have received for  
that car to include electrical and upholstery parts as well as that  
rubber parts are total junk. Door panels that can not be removed  
because the material is so thin that it cracks as soon as you try to  
remove the panel, and material that is cut to short and falls off  
with in 1 year of installing. Turn signal switches that are wired  
wrong, door seals that fall off.  Sound familiar. And there are a  
probably more 67 Mustangs on the road today than there are the total  
Healey's on the road.
