Well, it's finally here. Tomorrow morning at 7 am we will be moving the Healey into the paint booth. I spent the last two days sanding and applying seam sealer. My fingers hurt.
Every square inch of this car was "scuffed" to prepare it for the application of sealer and finish paint.
Seam sealer was applied between the frame rails and floor pans. This will prevent water and dirt from being trapped there and greatly reduces the chances of rusting.
The photo to the right shows the last of the patches that were welded in place today. It was necessary to cut a small hole in each front wheel house in order to apply POR 15 to the inner rockers. The inner rockers are now sealed inside and outside.
Tomorrow morning it will be RED...
