[Healeys] Bonnet hinges

[Simon Lachlan]

With reference to my query regarding the refitting of an AH 3000's bonnet, I
received a couple of replies which, taken together, are probably worth
passing on.
David Ward sent me this:-" Prior to removing the bonnet from the car  ALWAYS
drill two small holes through each bonnet 
hinge and bracket to vastly assist the re-fitting of the bonnet afterwards.
Simply align the holes up and 
"presto" the bonnet is aligned perfectly and not taken hours to achieve."
Makes perfect sense?
And Kevin sent me a photo of one of his hinges which I have Photoshopped.
Anyhow, you will see the two small holes that someone drilled at some stage.
Doubtless 99% of you were aware of this clever tip but there may be another
ignoramus out there.
