Folx,

I too had a chance to see the car at Hershey this past week. I second Perry's
remarks,  particularly about the satisfying "thunk" the doors make.  It was a
real treat to see a Healey as it was really built.  Charlie is to be commended
on his efforts to return back to original some of the modifications the
previous owner had made without thinking of the car's historical value, such
as fitting Minilites, a repro distributor cap (why ??) and bumblebee ignition
wires.  Fortunately all the replaced original parts came in a box with the
car,  and Charlie has been changing things back wherever feasible.  An amazing
time capsule !

Peter
