I think that its been dormant too long for any goodwill to be remaining in
the name.  Sort of like the Big 3 resuming production of Packard,
Studebaker, Nash, etc.  Great histories, but the impression that these names
would have on the public would be that they are antiques.

Besides, sentimentally speaking, Austin-Healey would be something completely
different without Geoff and Donald.
