[Healeys] Early 100 scuttle seal (again)

[WILLIAM B LAWRENCE]

Michael,

The scuttle seal for the BN1s was a short strip of rubber about 1" by 1/2" by
6". I got mine from Martin McGregor who also gave me instructions on how to
install it.

It's a pretty primitive thing and works about as well as you would expect, but
what's a little water here and there?
