I understand that now, thanks.
It's a shame it was so mistreated after Earl's Court but at the time, I'm sure
it was just considered a 'used car'.  It was great for Bruce and Inan to save
it so future generations could appreciate.

Ray,

>From the pictures I saw of the car it was a wreck and as I remember it was
saved from going to the crusher at the scrapyard.  Bruce did a nice job 20
plus years ago but it was due for another refreshing.

  Ray,

  Not true.  Goldie when first discovered was in very sad shape and was first
restored by Bruce Phillips.  It has just been restored yet again.

  What you saw in 2000 was an already restored Goldie, so "originality" was
already lost when Healey Surgeons first restored the car.

  Cheers,

  Curt

    So, if true, GOLDIE, is no longer GOLDIE but a reproduction of GOLDIE?  A
shame the originality would be lost; I brought her up from DC in 2000 to
AHSTC's Encounter Valley Forge, the car looked great (I know ten years goes by
so quickly).
