[Healeys] through the windshield picture

Hi Ken,
I have a connection with AHS3802.
Way back in 1959 my Dad took me to the Dunedin Festival Road Races where
two 100S's were racing, Fred Losee in 3802 and Ross Jensen in 3908. My Dad
was a real car buff and took the time to take me into the pit area and show
me the 2 cars close up. He pointed out that I should take a close look at
them because I would probably never see one again...New Zealand was a long
away in 1959!!
It was great that he lived long enough to see me race my "S" 3903 at
Watkins Glen in 1990 just before he died.
Another interesting coincidence with 3802 was that I drove it from Elkhart
Lake to Tom Kovac's shop before I finished the restoration of 3903...that
was a real treat as it was the first time I had ever driven an "S" on the
road... I was mightily impressed..
