Good Day; I visited the preview of the auction for this Healey and was quite
surprised that it was even there; the auction was targeted at the automobilia
crowd. Only two cars were on view for the auction - a hot-rod and the
Healey. We checked out the car and took a number of photos and reviewed the
history binder that was available. While there, David Grainger of The Guild
of Automotive Restorers [ www.guildclassiccars.com ] was taking a TV crew
around shooting footage for a series to be run on The History Channel in
2013.
After the auction was over I contacted Grainger and he let me know that he was
the successful buyer. The car is available for viewing at his business
located in Bradford, Ontario and I expect to attend with a few other Healey
enthusiasts. If anything material comes up that I can pass on I will do so.

thought it would go for.>>
