Hi All,
I finally finished the restoration (freshtoration - drive train was working fine...so mostly bodywork, paint and interior) of my 1962 Austin Healey BT7 Mk II. Just about all of the work was done by BritishCarForum member "healeyblue"...I did most of the interior.
Randy Forbes knows this car as it belonged to his longtime friend Mike Foote. It sat in a building for 12 years...to be rescued and brought back to life.
Here's a short video of the progression in pics...not many pics here but you get the picture. This is over a 6 year span.

So, yesterday I finished the rear seat backrest and decided to take it for a drive today. This is the first drive I've taken with it of any appreciable distance...sorry for the noisy fuel pump and the learning curve I'm having to go thru on the crashbox tranny .

Let me know what you guys think!
