This Austin Healey's comes in for a paint job. Hmmm, looks in great shape. |

This Healey looked great on the outside, its what's inside that counts. Removing the rocker reveals the facts . . . oxidized metal, and a lot of it.

The trunk has a few surprizes too. The rust will be removed and repaired. This AH is currently being stripped and being redied for pressure washing. |

THE RESTORATION CONTINUES!
The oxidation (rust) has been cleaned off, as shown on this fender. The voids need to be filled and ground smooth. |

You're looking at the same fender after being restored. You can bearly make out the new weld because it has been ground smooth. |

 |
The fenders as well as the rest of this Austin Healey has been cleaned, metal etched, and primed. You are looking at the engine compartment that has been painted. The engine has been brought back to its former self . |

The trunk has been primed. But this trunk has been carefully restored with a new floor and fabricated braces replacing these corrupted items. |

The floor and rocker panels have been restored with newly fabricated metal components. This Austin Healey is starting to look pretty again, but it still has a far way to go yet. |

The seats are completely restored and ready for installation.

The Austin Healey look returns to this restoration project after the fenders and doors are set in place.
There is still a lot of work to do, and this result makes this Healey's prognosis an excellent one. |
