<div><font size="2" face="Arial"><span class="x_760341923-25102020">The interior on my Healey BT7 was in very poor condition when I purchased the car. I am making the the rear quarter panels and noticed some Healey's from the same time frame as mine have two
screws holding the rear quarter panel in place. It looks like the screws go through the wheel well and then secure the bump stops. I have the the original wooden pieces which are in very poor shape but definitely no holes. The car in question was manufactured
in November 1960 and is towards the end of the BT7 Mk1 production.</span></font></div>

<div><font size="2" face="Arial"><span class="x_760341923-25102020">Were these holes added by the factory or are they aftermarket?</span></font></div>
