Hey Maxwedge5281
That is great as it's a great car ! Plus you're bringing it down the South Carolina which is even better. Maybe see you at one of the SC shows, perhaps British Car Club of Charleston's big show in late October or next year's show in Columbia.

Congrats.....I hear it is a great car. You certainly do need to bring it down to Mount Pleasant this October for the British Car Club of Charleston show.

Cheers,
Irene

After being retired for three years, last year I took a part time job at Costco for something to do. I'm currently working at the Costco gas station in Frederick, Md. Last Saturday I drove my 100-6 to work, and parked it at the station. It was like an all day long one car show. I was off Sunday, and when I came in to work on Monday everyone was telling me about a red and white Healey on a trailer that stopped for gas on Sunday! Was it you? What are the odds of two Healeys in two days there!

Wow, we missed each other by a day! Everyone was telling me what a great looking car you have:smile: it gets even more coincidental, we live right in the middle of the new market historic district...

The Healey is looking great, and I like the EB in the background. I miss mine. It was too nice to run through Cleveland winters, so it got replaced with a Tacoma...boring.
