Great story ! 40 years ago we sold our BJ8 to help pay the rent. Our son was an infant and the telephone company i worked for went on strike. Money was in short supply so the decision to sell was made. I never regreted the decision but longed for another Healey. 40 years later, 10 years retired, 5 grandchildren and still happily married I found a new perfect BJ8 and bought it.
