After todays battle with the front fender on my BJ8 to change the fresh air hose I have to wonder where the engineers head was at because it definetly wasnt on car engineering. Finally after removing all the fender bolts and screws what do I find?? Uhhh... you have to remove the windshield to remove the fender because a lip of it is behind a tab which can only clear if the windshield is off.... At this rate, it is begining to be easy to see how the majority of restorations get started on them because while attempting to do a relatively minor task you have to dissasemble half the car to do it. Is there ANYTHING on the "BIG" healeys that is simple?? I have owned 5 to 6 Bugeyes (still have one) and they are such a pleasure to work on as the engineer belived in the "kiss" theory and followed it when desigining the sprites. I love my BJ8 and really enjoy it more than the bugeye but **** I hate when it needs to be worked on.
ERant over lol now does anybody have any input on removing the fender without removing the windshield??
