Eberhard -
I am now pleased to officially present you with your official training
certificate, "Austin Healey Repair - Expert Technician."
You successfully completed the most challenging of tests for the
certificate, of using a large lead hammer and gigantic plumbing pliers to
fix your valuable classic car - using only the finest engineered German
machine tools. As my father always told me "You must always use the
correct tool for the job!" Indeed you have, and recorded the procedure (in
photographs) for posterity.
Best Regards,
Alan
