[Healeys] Big Healey Trunk Hinge Spacing Outside to outside Measurement Survey Needed.

[Len and/or Marge Hartnett]

Dave:  More than you asked for:
Outside to outside:  26 3/4 inches.  Inside to inside:  24 7/8 inches.

I remove the pins with either a small drift or the pin that I use to replace 
them.  Those are Cotterless hitch pins also known as detent or ring pins, 
3/16 X 2 inches. I have modified my rack to be easily removable.  The legs 
rest on the inside of the bumper (more detail available if needed) and the 
rack is held down by a bungee cord that goes around the trunk handle.
