All this talk about making her tingle just reinforces my opinion that they
are babe magnets. Or, is that just a short through the cars body?

When mine goes into OD it feels like she's settling in for a cruise. It's
very satisfying.
Speaking of her, Healey Data put her in this year's calendar. Check out
November. It's a photo the previous owner used in the eBay add.

I know all of you are on the edge of your chairs waiting to hear my opinion
on this subject. So here goes. A well restored Healey is a wonderful
experience to drive with all its smells, sounds & tactile sensations & a big
part of that experience for me is the original, well restored transmission &
overdrive.
At a recent "Spring Thing" event, participants were ask to submit a short
story describing their drive in the Healey that day. The stories were read
aloud at the awards dinner. In the most memorable story (according to me)
the author wrote that when the driver flicked the switch in & out of
overdrive, it made her tingle. I've never heard of a modern transmission
doing that!
