[Healeys] Rich Chryslers Passing

[keith taylor]

As a "blow in " to the Healey fraternity  I posted questions to this forum
it was Rich who often replied to my query's   I soon realised that this
bloke was special     To run a full time business & devout time to "
enthusiasts "
(read dickheads) he was unique in the business world along with Norman
Knock I doubt we will see the likes of either again.
A sad sad day
