I personally think you cannot do that. It will become an obsession. Part of the family. You will get hooked on it and when people come up to you and tell you, you have a great, beautiful car and that they had one once and loved it. You'll look for excused to drive it. Door dings will hurt you and you will park far away to protect it. With a Healey comes all these wounderful people on this and other forums you will soon look upon as family.

BTW, and FWIW, after years of lusting, I mean looking, one year ago, I paid $45k for an original car in excellent condition with 55k miles. Good luck finding an original car, that just needs a few things you can do yourself, for $25k. If you do, don't think, write a check.
