With the boomers becoming empty nesters/retiring the kids that
wanted Healeys when they were new but were too young, are getting a
second chance.
Also, I know that I am seeing more and more advertizing with
Healeys in them. Last night I was at an Exxon "On the Go"'s car wash
and one of the signs showed a guy looking at the "shine" in what I am
90% sure was a Red Healey. If Madison Ave finds the marque, and keeps
putting it in ads, more people will want them.
Plus, why wouldn't everyone want a Healey?
