Rear wing (I think that is fender in American) is fastened to B pillar =
by sixteen (eight each side) No 10 UNF x =C2=BD=E2=80=9D countersunk =
pozi screws, with plain washer, spring washer and nut on the back.
=20
Rear wing is fastened to the sill by four (two each side) No 10 UNF x =
5/8=E2=80=9D pan head pozi screws, with the same hardware on the back.
=20
All wing screws fastening into spring nuts are the special ACME thread =
ones. However there are three =C2=BC=E2=80=9D UNF bolts in the forward =
three top wing holes, all inserted from under the wing. One of these =
(the front one) is screwed into a tapped plate. The others on my car =
(BJ7) are screwed into captive nuts welded to the inner wing. BJ7 & BJ8 =
need this captive nut since the drainage channel makes this area =
inaccessible. However earlier cars may use nuts and washers since =
access is better.
=20
Front wings have ACME thread bolts in all spring nuts, which are all =
holes in the top and front wing flanges, but shorter ones in the holes =
under the headlamp. Front wings are attached to the sills by three =
=C2=BC=E2=80=9D UNF X =C2=BE=E2=80=9D long bolts each side, with nuts =
and spring and plain washers inside.
=20
The front wings are secured to the A pillars by the appropriate number =
of No 6 x 3/8=E2=80=9D long self tappers.
=20
Hope this helps

Subject: [Healeys] Fender Screws
=20
Can someone please tell me what fasteners or combination of fasteners =
are used to attach the rear fender to the B-pillar? The body shop =
fitted the fenders to my car after painting with a minimal (and I am =
sure incorrect) number of screws/bolts, nuts and washers. Just enough =
to hold them in place. None are together at the bottom flanges and I =
don't see any in either the front or rear pillars. In fact I think =
there are fasteners missing for the shrouds, but never having assembled =
a big Healey I can not be sure of anything. Nothing real specific about =
fasteners in Roger Moments book. maybe if I had taken it apart for the =
restoration, but it did not have all the fenders and the ones it did =
have were hardly attached.
