CHROME TRIM COMPLETE

Finally, it looks like a Big Healey again.  Today, we installed the hood and the remaining chrome trim including the studs that are used to fasten the convertible top and tonneau cover.  You will also notice, in the photo to the left, the fender mirrors and chrome air intake grille in the hood.









 If you look closely in the photo to the right you will notice a reflection of the engine on the underside of the hood...great paint work.















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.

Later...
