[Healeys] Wiring Progress and Other Things

[Alan Seigrist]

Mike -

For an amateur your work certainly looks like a pro!  Looks excellent.
Your free harness looks very original.

I think those screws were originally sheet metal screws so probably the
holes were filled over, but putting in machine screws is actually a nice
touch.

Cheers,

Alan
