[Healeys] BJ8 at RM Hershey auction

[BJ8Healeys]

Charlie Baldwin:  strange that I never received your original message via the list (yet).

Yes, I have the car in the registry.  One previous owner recorded in New Hampshire (AHCA member 1990 - 1999), then restoration by Knut Holzer's BMC Classics in April 2008.

Not MGB, but 'champagne.'  Was that an original color?  This one came 
from the factory in white; maybe that's why it didn't sell?

Not the best seat upholstery I've seen, and is the shift lever bent, or 
is it an illusion?  And the fluid reservoir spoils an otherwise nice 
engine bay presentation.  Nice car, nonetheless.
