[Healeys] 100M Back on BaT

[HealeyRick]

Interesting question about misrepresentation. Who misrepresented what to
whom? Did the restorer misrepresent a 100M with a BN1 frame and possible
replacement motor to the original buyer who was clueless or was it the
original buyer that was doing the misrepresenting? There's probably some
grist for a lawyer's mill in all this. (retired lawyer, I can't help
thinking this way) Maybe I should start one of those "The Healey Lawyer"
columns in the *Marque?*
