[Healeys] Healey Milestone

[Curtis Arndt]

Bert and Mike,

I know of several shops that can do the grill correctly, but they are not
in SoCal.  The big thing with the 100 grill is to have the shop polish the
fragile brass surround while it's still screwed to the grill slats.  This
way there is a lesser chance of the surround warping with heat or getting
caught in the buffing wheel by a ham fisted polisher.  Trust me I know.

Bert I'll call you later this week to talk about your car and other
things.   BTW, the car looks great.

I've attached a photo of  a properly restored grill done by a shop in
Canada for a fellow "List" member.
