Watching more, Seat belts were WWII war surplus apparently off of an
airplane (Spitfire)? Bolts were surplus aircraft bolts because Healey could
not get approval for new ones. (Brits had severe restrictions after the war)
Bolts appear to be from some type of airplane. Tranny fittings for a variety
of trannys. Most if not all welds are gas as they did not have arc welders.
News flash. Goeff says that Donald never really liked BRG as it did not show
the car well!

OMIGOD makes my BN6 with a BN7 tri-carb engine and BJ8 Tranny more valuable,
(at least in my eyes)

You all gotta get this DVD.

Damn, my wife just came in and wants to know why I can't get $400k  for
mine. Told her that when she is worth that amount, I will get it for my
Healey. Anyone know where the nearest emergency room is?

And, thanks for bring this subject up. I am now sitting here with a glass of
vino (Australian - Patrick my Matey - never English to keep that thread
going also) Bringing tears to my eyes. Roger and Goeff doing an extremely
close inspection and explanation of what was done then and why. Nothing
"stock" about that car -- doubt if it would ever pass Concurse standards but
if one ever wanted documentation on a "REAL" Healey, this DVD does it!!!
Great Job. Explains the Healey philosophy of modifying as much as possible
to win the next race. Haven't watched it in a long time! Worth watching just
to see the looks on Goeff's and Rogers's faces as they look under, over and
through it!
