[Healeys] first drive of 2017

[Bob Spidell]

"Never restored." 

That explains the smooth, subtle curve on the bottom of the body between the front and rear wheel wells, tying the wings and rocker panels together. That is very difficult to get right, and even the best resto shops sometimes don't get it perfect (esp. with some of the repop parts).

Thanks for the compliment Bob. Never restored. I have had it since 1973, my second year at college. It shows well from 20 feet away! Has its share of ragged edges up close. Cant bring myself to tear out the original intearior but it needs it.

High 40s and sunny here in Baltimore. No top on my car but but not too cold with the right clothing. Had to give her a wash too!
