[Healeys] What's your Healey, and what Healeys have you owned?

[Chris Dimmock]

Absolutely overwhelmed by the responses!
We've heard about
- Original doco 100/ BN1's
- Selling a Healey to pay for a vasectomy reversal (and calling your child
Austen)
- owning TWO (2) brand NEW BJ8's
- owning the SAME Healey for over 40 years!?!
- owning over 40 big and small Healeys (and no one said you are finished
yet!)
- heaps of wonderful Healey stories!!!
WOW!!!
Add more stories guys!!! And Girls!
These highlights are just my take.
Ownership is not always a vasectomy reversal!!
Me? 2 big Healeys. 3 sprites. Over the last 33 years. One divorce. No
vasectomy!
But the history of my Healeys is still interesting - just maybe my life
isn't!!!
Just join in the fun.
Vasectomy reversal or not - and I can't top that - everyone's Healey story can
be  interesting!
Sincerely.
Chris

I'm very happy and proud of the restoration Keith has done on my first Big
Healey!

1995. The second one was an awesome little car. Far better on a track than the
sum of the parts.

flow Ford 1600cc, twin Webered powered Sprite (152 FLY) 1982 - 1995. Now in
Qld. Again. A great little Car.
