Here is a note form a member from years back. He was in the area for a
business meeting and came by the show we attended on Whidby Island. He asked
to be
remembered to the club. I thought the best way would be to just forward the
message on to the list. It will also give everyone his e-mail address.

Bruce and Sue,
I am glad our paths crossed last month on Whidby Island. Your car is
beautiful and I was very glad to see a Healey out there with all of those
other
wonderful cars.
Most folks donbt expect to see a Healey at a show where the majority of
entrants are American made. I hope you took home a nice trophy.
I enclosed a picture of me and Jane and our 1967 BJ8. This was taken at the
2007 Eurofest car show in Spartanburg S.C, at the BMW plant. Healey was the
featured marque and Gerry Coker was the guest of honor and keynote speaker.
There were 110 Healeys of all types in the show, out of a total of 600
European cars. I was most pleased that we took 2nd place in the BJ7 and BJ8
class
(about 60 cars) since we drove the car to the show from Arkansas, about
1800 miles round trip. It took me 4 hours to get all of the bugs off and
clean
the wheels before the show!
Please give my regards to the folks in the Cascade Club. I was a member
from 1990 to 1994, then moved back east to North Carolina. I actually
maintained
membership in the Cascade club for about 10 years. One of my best memories
is of our trip to Breckenridge in 1992. Bob Findley organized the trip and
it was a hoot. I think we had 13 cars in the caravan and many good stories
resulted from our 10 day trip. Many of the friends I made in the club stayed
in
touch for a long time and a few of the old members may still remember me. I
drove a Healey-blue BJ8 in those days but have since restored this white BJ8
and it is now my primary Healey. I have since moved to Arkansas as you can
tell from my address.
Well, I certainly hope that you continue to enjoy your Healey and stay in
touch if possible.
Take care. Happy Healeying.
