Hardtop Restoration

[Lin]

This is a link to a web site I put together on the subject of restoring a Big Healey hardtop.
Just trying to help someone else who may be attempting the same thing.
Let me know if there are problems or questions.

Hi Lin,
A great "how to" & pics. A super looking car. Thanks for sharing.

Lin, now that was extremely well done, very helpful and looks great on the car.

Ed (shop@justbrits.com) provided some helpful tips on building a more efficient web site. I have gone through and reduced the size of the thumbnails (not as small as Ed would like) so that the site will hopefully load a little faster. I did not reduce the width of the page nor did I reduce the high resolution images that you go to when you click on a thumbnail. I did so intentionally because while they take a while to download, as an amateur restorer I always prefer being able to get the detail of a high resolution shot. It is not my intention to become an expert web author, but I hope this information is helpful.

I want a hardtop!

Yep, those are Sprite bumpers, but they were also used on the Big Healey Rally cars. Just guessing, but probably for weight savings.
