Subject: [Healeys] Black faces<br>
<br>
I read the following question recently on facebook, but no
clear answer was given. Does anybody know, especially to
the cross panel in front of the radiator?<br>
<br>
Is it right that the lower lip on the rear shroud was
painted (semigloss) black on 6 cylinder Austin-Healeys and
the same was with the cross panel front face in front of
the radiator? Are there other body panels which are not
just bolt on painted in black?<br>
<br>
<br>
