[Healeys] Test--is the list down?

[Jean Caron]

Bruce,
If it was hit on the right side in the past as you mentioned, you have other issues as well as the inner fender is attached to the inner sill, so if it is one inch back, where is the end of your inner sill at the front? Is it one inch back as well? Something is not working out here or is it only the top part of it that was not stretched back toward the front far enough. You may be opening a can of worm  but fixing it is still the best way forward. Take lots of measurements, not just from each side but also in an "X" so you will see how far off you are on each side.

Jean

Not done, but underway.  The vent is installed in the left wing (see photo), and the right side is underway.  But we have encountered some issues.  The right side inner fender is about an inch further back than the left, and interferes with the vent.  It looks like it was hit in that area in years past and poorly repaired.  But, hey, nobody sees behind the fender, so who cares, right?  So that needs to be fixed.  There are poor rust repairs on the inner structure on both sides that should be addressed.  The door hinge plate keepers are nearly rusted away.  The heater blower was trashed and shoddily repaired with fiberglass.  I’m adding headers and side-exit exhaust.  The horn push tabs all broke and when I took the trafficator apart, I discovered the base was broken into 3 pieces, which explains why the right indicator would not stay on.  I’ll be working with Curt Arndt on that.

It’s been slow – everybody’s been out driving, I guess.



Speaking of which, is your car all done now? Any new upgrades while re-doing it?
