Tom sorry to hear about your trouble. I live in Warrenton VA. If you had 
your reg. book with you , you could have called me. I have restores Healey's 
as well as E type Jag's. I also have a lift in my garage and would have 
opened it up to you and helped as much as I could. Next time carry the good 
book LOL
