Thankyou for you kind offer, but I will have to decline as I have a fine selection of chisels already - I just need to procure a sledge hammer! :wink: :lol:

I know it came off an Austin Healey, the owner had bought a new one thinking the original would be in bad shape but it wasn't. He installed the new one (probably from Moss, but not sure) and I kept this one; doesn't make the car any faster but it does turn much better now.
