The front shroud and grille are without a doubt the focal point of the Austin Healey 3000. The "lines" of this car are no less than stunning and the grille is classic in design.
We have yet to complete the installation of all the parts of the grille, but you can plainly see, this car is truly a "work of art".
After the grille, front badge, and windshield washer nozzles were fitted, the front shroud is ready to be installed. Tim, who is visiting the shop this week, helped with the installation. It is definitely a three man job.
You will notice Tim in the background just waking up from his nap. Those camera flashes can be annoying.
Tim was pleased with the quality of the work in general and very impressed with the paint.

The project completion date is November 2...the day before the Hilton Head Concours d'Elegance, and I am pleased that we are on schedule. This car WILL be completed on time.
The archive listing of this blog contains detailed step-by-step photos and narratives regarding this restoration since it began late last December. Please direct any comments and questions to tommystoplesscars@yahoo.com.
Such a beautiful car...
