Well, I acquired my BN1 in 1997.  It was restored to Concours specs by
2022.  Meanwhile I had to learn how to weld (gas and MIG), sand blast, do
extensive rust repair, finish panels, apply hardened paints, r&r engine,
tranny, rear end, find quality chrome platers, locate various hen's teeth
items, obtain and install wiring harness, fuel and brake systems.  Numerous
people helped me tremendously along the way and I couldn't have done it
without them.  Roger Moment was of singularly continuous, consistent advice
and source of unavailable parts.  Things I did not do myself: engine and
tranny rebuild, chrome plating, upholstery, wheel balancing beyond static
balance.  What did it cost?  I have no idea.  A lot of the parts and
outside labor were done several years ago when they cost less than they do
now.  What is it worth to me now?  A lifetime of experience and
experiences.  At 87 this is probably my last Healey.
