Why not stay on the list for the entertainment value. Also, you possess
knowledge of Healeys that is of value even if you no longer have one. Who
knows, you might get another one some day.

Dear friends,
After close to ten years I regret having to advise you that I will no longer
be participating in this forum. Even worse: I will not be a member of the
Healey family any more - I just sold my BJ8 to a Swiss enthusiast which I
happened to meet here in Holland.

The reason for the sale is purely financial: For over three years now I have
been  trying to sell one of the two houses which I own, but the housing
market in this country is nearly dead and I don't see any improvement in the
near future. Two houses mean double charges and taxes and as I'm retired I'm
depending on a State pension plus a private pension and that's unfortunately
insufficient .

I cannot say how much I've enjoyed the participation in this list. I not
only had the pleasure of some visits from USA list members while visiting
Europe, I also bought and sold various bits and pieces and even got some
items free of charge.  There is an great sense of friendship on this list.

I also enjoyed an enormous amount of written help from a large number of
listers during my 7 year BJ8 restoration  and I would like to especially say
'thank you' to Rich Chrysler and Steve Byers for their support and
assistance.

Mark Bradakis: thank you for keeping this fantastic list on the air.

(The above does not mean I won't get my hands dirty any more: a friend of
mine just bought a Volvo 1800E and I've promised him that I will look after
the technical side of that animal.)

Goodbye to you all, thank you and so long!

No 1964 BJ8 29432 any more
