I will attest to the effectiveness of a "smoker blanket" from a cost
standpoint in contrast to products such as Dynomat (spl?). However,
just try finding one of those in Southern California, much less
England. Not only will you get a "Huh?", they'll probably escort you to
the door. Some years ago, after experiencing same, and going on the
advice of the late List member, Dick Brill Esq., he sent me a couple.
They were enough to cover the driver's side and the gear box tunnel.
If you have a LHD, that's all you need.
They were about 1/2" thick so they certainly wouldn't satisfy the
Concours Boys!
Trust me, I can now drive my Healey all day long bare foot! And living
where I do, that happens all the time.
A very happy Turkey Day to everyone!
