[Healeys] End of an era

[Ray Juncal]

 It's been great having you for a car guy pal all these years. Here's That race program you sent me when I was researching Siatas and trying to find a Siata engine lost in the local garbage dump. At that time I was friends with Dan Hogan who drove a Siata 208 in that speed week and is listed in the program.

 Sorry to hear Perry. And you are correct in stating they "really get under your skin". And most of those I have owned have more than a bit of my skin under, and in, them. What's next? Relaxing, or creating another bad habit?! Whatever, not the best of news, but sometimes necessary. 
Cheers!

All things come to an end and our ownership of our BN1 and BN2 has ended. The red 1955 BN2 was my first car that I bought for $275 in 1965. 
I scrounged up the funds delivering newspapers. That car followed us to Hawaii then back to PA and on to South Carolina. The modified BN1 I bought and built while living in Hawaii . Sold it to a guy in California only to buy it back years later. 
Probably have had 50 Healeys, big and little ones over the years. Maybe there is another one waiting out there for us but in a few days when the transport arrives to take Red and Yellow to their new homes things will be different. 
The garage will only hold the daily driver, tools that will not be used for vehicle maintenance anymore and miscellaneous other things that will need to be cleaned out hopefully before what ever comes next. Kimberley jokes with me and others that she gets to “go” first so that she does not have to clean up the “stuff”!
I have known probably 40 or more other Healey owners that have previously visited the same chain of events and I always thought it would somehow be different but it’s not. These little British beasts really get under your skin but they also still bring a smile to your face . 
All the best to you and yours.
Perry and Kimberley
