Conversion of Healeys to electric power is already happening. I know =
of three BJ8s that were sold individually to England and a company in =
London called =E2=80=9CRevival Autos=E2=80=9D was doing that conversion. =
They were also offering the original engine from one of the cars on =
eBay. They also have an address in Naples, FL and San Francisco

Subject: [Healeys] The Future of Healey Ownership
=20
Michael, Jim and All:
=20
Your comments below have me thinking about what I have valued in my =
Austin-Healeys, and by extension what others do, will, or might value in =
them =E2=80=93 as balanced against the costs of buying, restoring, =
upgrading or maintaining the cars.
=20
The Healey was never the fastest car I owned, and it was never the =
absolute best handling (though, the last BJ-8 with a new frame and gas =
shocks does handle pretty well). Obviously the Healey never had the most =
up-to-date safety features, and its exterior and dash lighting needed =
LED upgrades to perform even adequately. The list of things the cars =
were not is endless I compared to modern cars=E2=80=A6
=20
BUT: driving a Healey usually put a smile on my face, and it appeared to =
put smiles on a lot of other people=E2=80=99s faces when out and about. =
As you all know, you cannot drive one of these cars without getting =
smiles, waves, thumbs-up, casual nods, etc =E2=80=93 all acknowledging =
the wonderful looks the Healeys have! If you park one, you will =
undoubtedly find your self in a conversation with someone who either had =
one and sold it, wished he had bought one way back when, wished he could =
buy one now, had an uncle who had one, or a cousin, or a =
friend=E2=80=99s dad, or, or, or=E2=80=A6 - you know how it goes! =20
=20
As much fun as it has been to drive my Healeys all over the US and =
Canada, as well as Norway, Denmark and Sweden =E2=80=93 I can say that =
maintaining the cars has been the sore spot for me, and I=E2=80=99m now =
at an age and physical condition where it=E2=80=99s somewhere between =
really-not-fun, really-not-practical and really-not-possible anymore. As =
such, this conversation hits home for me.
=20
SO =E2=80=93 what do I think about the future of Healey ownership? I =
suspect there will always be a small cadre of serious collectors who =
want and value cars that are as original as possible (whether =
=E2=80=9Cconcours=E2=80=9D level, or just plain nice cars!). The pool of =
cars that survive in such condition is shrinking gradually, but then so =
is the pool of such people!=20
=20
I also suspect that there is a substantial and growing group who would =
love the opportunity to have a car with the classic styling of an =
Austin-Healey, but the reliability and drivability of a modern car. =
=E2=80=9CModern=E2=80=9D in this context may well be a very plastic term =
=E2=80=93 meaning different things to different generations. For =
today=E2=80=99s purposes I ask you all whether the future might be =
electric? An Austin-Healey that has good acceleration and brakes, good =
handling, no fluid leaks (!!) and far fewer to no 60 year-old parts to =
go bad =E2=80=93 all combined with the classic lines of the Healey.
=20
What do you say?

Subject: Re: [Healeys] Hello
=20
The costs you cite below are inexorably linked to the =E2=80=9CWhat to =
Do with our Healeys=E2=80=9D question that was also raised. Over the =
last several years, I have restored/built 3 cars with most of the work =
done by a local shop (one of which was a Bugeye). I needed to have most =
work performed by my shop. Although my skills are moderate and I enjoy =
turning wrenches, my time available to do so has lessened in recent =
years. =20
=20
Given the above circumstances, I have easily spent 2-3 times market =
value on the purchase price, work performed, parts, etc. I consider =
myself lucky to have a trusted local shop, but depending on where you =
live (even assuming you are willing to spend the money), it can be =
extraordinarily difficult to get the cars serviced, let alone have =
significant restoration work done. I also don=E2=80=99t see the value =
of most Healeys going up much, and it might go down given the (arguably) =
shrinking market/demographics for these cars. =20
=20
So given my recent experience, as much as I might love to own a BJ8 and =
would consider myself =E2=80=9Ca trusted steward=E2=80=9D, paying =
significant dollars (even for a beautifully restored car) in a declining =
market might not be the best idea. As for a car that =E2=80=9Cneeds =
work=E2=80=9D, I=E2=80=99m starting to feel like I=E2=80=99ve been there =
and done that a little too often. Also, there are fun (more modern) =
cars out there for similar dollars that don=E2=80=99t present the same =
financial risk and difficulties in selling. =20
=20
Lastly, I=E2=80=99m 61 (so not =E2=80=9Cyoung=E2=80=9D) and I think =
those that are younger than me are an even tougher sell. I have 2 adult =
sons that have a moderate interest in cars and the =E2=80=9Cold =
cars=E2=80=9D they might have an interest in are probably from =
2000-2010. =20
=20
The market is undeniably softer than previously, but I actually think =
current values are a sellers market, even in the US. With the potential =
for declining demand, it=E2=80=99s hard for me to see an improving =
Healey market over the next 10+ years. =20

Very good question.=20
All the work that you describe requires an individual with significant =
skill(s). These tasks are not something that your "run of the mill" =
parts changer can undertake. In our part of the world (Canada) those =
"parts changers", without breaking a sweat can easily pull in 6 figures =
which equates to $50/hr. $50/hr paid to the tradesman will typically be =
charged out at an hourly rate of at least $100.
In my book a full restoration takes 1200 hours at least, usually a lot =
more to produce concours standards.
So labour ONLY $120K.
Parts and materials usually at least 50% of labour. $60K.
Incidentals at least another $20K
It's getting up there =F0=9F=98=B3=F0=9F=98=B3

The list has been very quiet for a long time.
How about a discussion about the cost of restoring a BN1?=20
The metal work is About 90% done. The remaining work includes final =
fitting all body panels, preparing for paint & final painting.
Wiring, plumbing including rebuilding the brakes, interior, fitting the =
windscreen, convertible top, side curtains including providing all =
material where necessary.=20
Rebuild the engine including all the machining. I have all the necessary =
components.
