[Healeys] Front Apron Doesn't Fit

[Graeme Molony]

Stephen , Harold

Kilmartin Spares make pretty good aprons for both the 4 cylinder and 6 
cylinder cars

You might want to check with David Nock from British Car Specialists who 
probably have them in stock
and would a lot closer to you as they are agents for Kilmartin's

David might even be able to give you some measurements etc which would help 
you determine if it is
the apron or a bent bumper

Oh Boy…where did you get the apron?…I was about to order one (my car came 
without one many years ago), and I had wondered about the possible fit 
problems. Good luck with it!
