I have a customer that has brought me the nose and rear end from his Austin Healy 100. It needs some serious love.
The plan is for this NOT to be a restoration. He owns a Corvette shop and doesn't speak aluminum. He'll street rod it. He doesn't want it metalfinished which is fine worh me as i hate metalfinishing.
Does anyone know what alloy this is? I'm guessing 1100 based on how easy it moves.
So far, I've filled and repaired 762 holes and cracks in the nose and am ready to start on the lower nose.
My problem is, i dont really know what it looks like. I have the grill and can make sure the opening is correct. Whati dont know is what the area below the grill is supposed to look. Based on some internet photos, it appears to be pretty low crown.
Does anyone have one they could take some detail photos for me?
