Subject: [Healeys] 100 BN2 almost done....
Hello all,
I would like to thank all who helped me in getting my car from the
state it
was in:
http://picasaweb.google.pl/Volvo1800S/AH100Detailed
to the
state it's in today:

Great thanks go to Rich C. whom I have practically killed with questions..
Also, great thanks go to Rich Korn for providing photos of his very original
BN2.. And all others! The list is truly so wonderfully spirited!!
The next
stage will be the engine (almost done, just waiting for the last
coat of paint
with the gearbox):

The
paint process looked like this:

Now the small print: I am aware that:
- brake pipes are copper (cannot find
anything else in Poland)
- I used Koolmat (as a kind of a substitute for tar
paper :-) ) as I wanted
to insulate against heat
- flasher is not original
(looking for one)
- speedometer face & back color is not correct (winter
project)
- the VIN tag looks terrible (looking for someone to re print it)
-
fuel & oil flex pipes have wrong red thread (could not find proper one
here)
-
no twin batteries - (will be there maybe next year)
- gas pedal shaft not
insulated yet
- handbrake not insulated yet
- instrument panel not silver - I
could not find a trace of silver before
paint job, so I felt I had a good
excuse to leave it in white which although
probably not correct, looks better
to me :-)
- master switch is of newer type, I still have not rebuild my
previous one
- few items are still missing
Tadek
