Wow! Congrats Dan. It was worth waiting twenty years. Beautiful work and beautiful car. I am sure you have a thermostat in there somewhere!

The car had been sitting in cardboard boxes in a storage facility for many years before I convinced him to sell it to me.  I had never restored a car before and knew very little about the inner workings of a Healey.  However, I took my wife out for our first date in this car and wanted to see it back on the road again.  After retrieving it from storage, I worked on the car as finances allowed.  Raising a family, college expenses, etc. all got in the way of progress but I worked on the car out of my garage as time and funds permitted.  I did everything myself except some metal work and paint, I even got my granddaughter to help.  It took over twenty years and an unknown amount of money (my wife covers her ears when I talk about $$$$)  I’ve been enjoying driving it this summer when the Tennessee days are cool enough.  It runs great, the thermostat works perfectly along with everything else!
