<div>Folks- what I think should be the topic for conversation is: =
<strong>"What to do with our Healeys".</strong> This year I will be 82 and =
I am storing 2 Austin-Healeys and one Jensen-Healey in my garage. Two are =
for sale, and have been for sale for sometime, with no one interested in =
purchasing or even inquiring about their condition. My recently departed, =
good friend's stable of <span style=3D"text-decoration: =
underline;">Concours Gold Healeys</span> have been literally given away on =
BAT for half of what they are worth.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Our various clubs memberships are steadily declining and no younger =
folks are stepping up to acquire the cars left in their absence. Just look =
at the slew of cars sitting on ebay (some from our group member's stable) =
that are just not selling no matter the cheap bids and prices.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Interest in old British cars has been replaced by =
modern day Broncos and cyber trucks or voltage vehicles. In the near future=
 the only "pump" available at the gas station will be a charging station.=
</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>So the topic above needs to be addressed with=
 some creative thinking of what can we do to find a home for our Healeys =
when we can no longer bend down to change the oil. Museums won't be =
interested in hundreds of Austin-Healeys on their floor-maybe just one =
example will suffice-the rest ?. Just my take on current affairs. =

<div>Hi Mike,</div>

<div>You're right, it has been unusually quiet on the list lately. Perhaps =
everyone's Austin-Healey is running smoothly, or maybe they're tucked away =
