[Healeys] Wow big shout out to CGH for no Gas smell in 100 Boot

[Mr. Bill]

Charlie is not on this list, but I wish you were.  You will never find a 
Healey person with a bigger heart than Charles Hart!  When I had my 
surgery, Charlie immediately showed up at my house with my next 
project.  His own funds had purchased a 7/8" sway bar with all the 
fittings.  It was a 1 1/2 hour drive from his place down to mine.  He 
arrived and supervised the installation while I could only smile sitting 
in my wheelchair.

Some time ago, Charlie and I discussed a bracket that would allow 100 
owners to remove their "permanently mounted soft top bracket".  He 
bestowed a pair of those upon me for $0.  They were wonderful and you 
can now run around town without the soft top and slide it back in when 
you are going on a substantial Healey Road trip.

As Mr. Berg wrote, there are few to none Healey People that can hold a 
candle to Charlie!
