[Healeys] Austin-Healey 4000

[Michael Oritt]

Rick--

I can't now remember why I was present but in any case I am in some photos
taken at the Dedication by a "Future Home Of" sign along Pine Tree Road,
the entrance road leading to VIR proper.  It was really Bill Emerson's show
and though Connie Nyholm was probably there I can't now remember much
beyond that.

Best--Michael Oritt
