Len's comments about mileage got me thinking about how long I've owned my
Healey. I know there still some original owners out there. I bought my car
in 1975 for $500.00. It was 15 years old then and had been worked hard. I
had to rebuild the engine, tranny, king pins and the interior was very
rough. I figure I have 40,000 -50,000 miles on it. 2 rebuilds. Don't ask.
It sat for 8 years with ocaasional trips in the 80s. Since first returning
to service.
Hoping to find time to finish hooking stuff up to restart after starting my
resto 2 years ago.
Happy roads.
