    Every thing is looking good.

    Just pop the wires out of the flasher socket on the main board, hook them up to the flasher and zip tie it somewhere behind the fuse block. They almost never fail,...

    I'm sure I've seen power conversations for cowl vents offered somewhere. I made one for my 46 many years ago out of a power headlight motor. Works ok but is slow.

    Dash and steering wheel are looking great. Always nice to have a good looking dash because you spend so much time looking at it while driving.:LOL:

    Ryan, a suggestion on the lower hose issue. Fab a solid pipe with regular off-the-shelf mandrel bent sections. You can make much tighter bends and do things you could never do with hose. It...

    Yep! Good old fashioned cardboard. Low tech still works.

    But, for what it's worth, this old 20th century neanderthal is actually learning real CAD on a real computer. I plan on posting a thread...

    Oh yea! I remember PAW well. Moon as well. Engine turning is about as classic and timeless as it gets. Good for just about any year of build. If it was good enough for Bugatti, it's plenty good...

    Yep. I'm feeling the same way about the Healey project. I've been fooling with that thing for 6 years!!! Some of the delays were unavoidable, but much of it was my own fault. Changes to the game...

    I can't comment on 40 taillights, but I can tell you that I used Rodworx LED lenses in my 46. They are the brightest LED conversions that I have found. I even had a fellow that was helping me back...

    I'm late to this discussion, but agree with the simple, but shiny comments. FWIW - on my Healey project, I'm looking to do just that. A simple straight color, no tri-coats or even metallics. I...

    Looking very good.

    Those dang Ford X-members sure get in the way, don't they. The 46 is bigger, but still tight. My exhaust is under the chassis too. I didn't have the ability at the time to...

    40, you're probably already finished with this, but I have a suggestion. When I build a transmission crossmember, I will add a couple of shims under the rubber mount. This way, if I need to adjust...
