Was browsing the Austin Healey side of the BCF and "borrowed" this post from Andy - 57 BN4. Click on "here" in his post then page down to page 3. Thanks to Andy. Very neat.

Wow, what a great article -- lots of detail & insight.

I love that description of the TR3s: "accelerative 100 bhp motor cars".

Ummm I could not find the link what am I doing wrong? All that red! I am going to be painting my car red so I am wondering what specific variety of red do you favor?

Try this: https://www.britishcarforum.com/bcf/showthread.php?87032-HOW-AUSTIN-HEALEYS-ARE-ASSEMBLED Click on Andy's "here".
The new forum doesn't link back to the old forum (or something like that).
Sorry didn't write down and cannot remember codes/names for any of the reds (none were done recently).

Unfortunately it looks like the "here" link doesn't go anywhere anymore - not a forum problem, just the target isn't there anymore.

Alright, thanks for the assistance!

I think Andy updated the link in the original thread now to the new shorter name of the file also.
