I just got my car running after a total engine rebuild and it is running great! No more ticking sound! Root cause was broken rings in 4 of 6 cylinders.
Unfortunately, on the way home from the Texas Healey Roundup this past weekend, I was rear-ended about a mile from home. Lady that hit me said she had been following me for several blocks and was "admiring my car" then failed to stop in time and tagged me in the right rear at a red light. I think I was very lucky in no damage to the rear shroud or fenders but it did buckle my boot lid a bit. Should be an easy fix, I think. The only mechanical damage I have found so far is it broke the exhaust hanger on the aft passenger side.
Looking at the parts catalogs, it is apparent I never had the correct exhaust hanger arrangement so would like to put it back right now. Does anyone have a good set of pictures of the driver and passenger side mounts at the rear of the car where the mufflers cross over?
