[Healeys] Winter projects, parts questions

[WILLIAM B LAWRENCE]

Thanks Rich, and to all the others who have answered. I guess I'll cast around
and see who uses silk screen for their faces.

I thought there was another application for the strip material, but couldn't
remember what it was. Maybe if I had bumpers...
Anyway if it's used for something else maybe Martin McGregor has it. I guess
I'llgive ohm a call...

Thanks for the pictures I cancertainly use them for reference, but would you
happen to have measurements so I can make an attempt at fabricating one. I'll
probably end up making it backwards, so if anyone is converting to RHD, oh
never mind...

Thanks again.
