I just posted how one would remove damaged nuts, bolts, etc. within the tool forum. I post this question here as I am curious how folks get replacement nuts, bolts, screws, etc. for Austin Healey's.
Side note: so far all of the light assemblies have been removed successfully and the left front body panel has half of the bolts removed. Slowly, but surely.....
Thanks for your help.

Hello,
I have just started restoring an AH 100-6 and unfortunately have already stripped a few screws. I saw a couple of tools for this. Particularly "Craftsman 3 pc. Screw-Out™ Damaged Screw Remover Set" and "Craftsman 10 pc. Damaged Bolt/Nut Remover Set, Low Profile Bolt-Out". I am not sure how either of these work or if there are better products to help with this. Also, how can one try to prevent stripping the screws, etc. to begin with? From other postings I am worried about being able to find replacement parts.
Thanks for the help.
