[Healeys] BN1 100M in Octane

[HealeyRick]

Seems that's the common play these days when you've got a high-end car ready
to go to auction ... get a feature in a major magazine.  Doesn't bother me at
all, let's us get a look at cars we might never see otherwise.

Yep I read that article. No doubt the timing was to coincide with the auction
sale. Interesting debate about whether it is really a factory 100M even though
a BN1. Should provide some controversy. Obviously the claim doesn,t hurt the
auction marketing either;

The August issue of Octane magazine has a nice feature on a BN1 100M owned
by
Sonny Tough of St. Louis since 1958.  Not so long ago the car would be

described as "needs restoration" but today it's highly original condition
brings it that treasured "deeply patinated" classification.  Sonny, now 94
years old, is pictured with the car, which is scheduled to go on the block at

the Gooding and Co. auction at Monterey.  It's a good read.
