And when you go there, ask to see their storeroom of parts. It is
phenomenal. If they don't have the part, it was probably never manufactured.

Gary -
There are a few guys around, but for my money I'd have British Car
Specialists in Stockton do your car. They are Austin Healey specialists and
their prices are decent enough (they are in Stockton afterall... rent is
cheaper!). Stockton is only about an hour's drive out of the Bay Area.
You can specify what sort of restoration you want to do and tell them your
budget, I'm sure they will work around to your needs. Best thing about BCS
is they probably have the single most complete stock of correct parts for
Healeys anywhere in the world, which is important for having the right
little tiny parts when doing paint & interiors.

The owners contribute regularly to this list too. I have no financial
interest in their firm....
Cheers,
