[Healeys] Grace, and the barn find 100 at PB

[Jean Caron]

I simply cannot see this car being worth more than half what they got for it at the auction. It does not make sense, I don't care whether they found it in a barn, an alleyway or in the back of a garage somewhere. It's just an old neglected car.

Listers,

Sounds like Grace will not be installed at the Simeone Museum in Philly
until mid-November.  The truck that was suppose to take her there in
October got delayed due to hurricane Matthew.

The BN2 barn find on the cover of the Nov-Dec 2016 issue of
Austin-Healey Magazine sold at Pebble Beach for $34,100 including the
buyer's premium according to the magazine article.  Gullwing Motor Cars
has it  on ebay with a price of $49,500.
