Just magic Dan. Well done to you and everyone involved.

Fitted with what I believe are the best tyres for a road going
Austin-Healey. Michelin XAS.

I apologies to the group, I have nothing to say about thermostats.

I WOULD like to thank the group very much for the many years of advice and
help you provided me during my restoration project.  You helped me in too
many ways to mention.   

I purchased my father's Tri-carb after he had completely disassembled it
with the thought he would restore it.  The car had been sitting in cardboard
boxes in a storage facility for many years before I convinced him to sell it
to me.  I had never restored a car before and knew very little about the
inner workings of a Healey.  However, I took my wife out for our first date
in this car and wanted to see it back on the road again.  After retrieving
it from storage, I worked on the car as finances allowed.  Raising a family,
college expenses, etc. all got in the way of progress but I worked on the
car out of my garage as time and funds permitted.  I did everything myself
except some metal work and paint, I even got my granddaughter to help.  It
took over twenty years and an unknown amount of money (my wife covers her
ears when I talk about $$$$)  I've been enjoying driving it this summer when
the Tennessee days are cool enough.  It runs great, the thermostat works
perfectly along with everything else!

I couldn't have done it without you!

Best, 

Dan Corning
