Jack has kindly given me permission to put these pics on my web site. I am
in the process of doing so now and will also include his very vivid
narrative. The photos will be on later tonite and the narrative will follow
shortly. I'll blast the list when they are all on.
We have all seen basket cases and wondered if there is any life there. He
has shown us that there is no Healey so far gone that it can not be brought
back to life.

Subject: Re; Restoration pics
Anyone considering restoring a rusty Healey needs to look at these
pics. If you look at the running cars out there in the 20 to 30
thousand range the investment in time and money on a total restoration
makes no sense at all. But all that has nothing to do with the fact
that Jack's efforts are awesome. Just think about all the jigs
templates and dies made and the well equipped shop and supple mind
employed to bring this bad ass car to the moment when one wonders if
building a rocket to the moon might be easier than installing a seat
pan.This should give us pause and no small admiration for Jack's
efforts. Jolly well done, Jonathan
