And this morning they are back! Several other thread's pics went the same way for me last night.
Pictures make any thread and we all want to see yours in detail Andy! :)

Paint shop dust is very bad for engines, a local shop has just destroyed a Ferrari engine by leaving it in one for six months. It had to be completely rebuilt again.

Message is get the air filters off the Healey and clean them out meticulously and blow or Hoover out engine compartment.

I made the rear seat blanks. I've also converted to the earlier 100 style metal dash and trim. Its now got an oil cooler and I made the little inlet fittings. The drivers seat is now fixed back and a bit deeper.
More later.....
