I'm from USA Riverside RI I recently purchased a 55 B1 Austin Healey The car has been sitting 30 years. Body is in fair to good condition, wiring is a mess
Brown extension cord spliced in with wire nuts, bare twisted wire etc. Manifold and carb's are in a box. I'm a hotrodder and have a 40 Ford pickup and a 48 Plymouth business cp both are street rods. The classic look of the AH were irresistible I had to have it, my goal is to get it running first and restore as I go along. I'm starting with the wiring and need to remove the dash, any one know how to remove the steering wheel?

Ralph, welcome! sounds like quite a collection. I would be remiss if I didn't let you know that in british Car World a Nasty Boy specifically refers to a big Healey with a V8 - now you know :grin:

Can't help you with the wheel though typically they are just held on with a big nut just like you others. Head over to the Austin Healey forum and they will know.

cheers!
 
Hi, and welcome! I’ve always wanted a BN1 or 2! Congratulations, come on over to the Healey Forum.
