Congrats Lin Rose,

If you're a member of the Austin-Healey Club of America, then you should get a monthly copy of the Healey Marque, included, mailed to your home.

This months issue, April 2009, features a fine article by one of our BCF members, Lin Rose.

Lin is an active member here, and I wanted to give a shout out to him, for a well written piece. He even made the cover!
From reading the article and looking at all the documentation he kept, he should be commended for a job well done. There's one photo, a two page spread, displaying his BT7 in all it's glory, and the smartly dressed Lin standing behind his BT7 with his arm around his daughter, or is that your beautiful wife... you lucky guy! Anyway, it's nice to put a face with the people we get to know and become friends with here on the BCF.

I'd also like to take a moment here and say how much I like the piece our Mr. Reid Trummel wrote in that issue, titled, Thank You Notes.

If you haven't received your copy of Healey Marque yet, look for it in your mailbox.

Well done Lin Rose!
Cheers,
Roger
 
Re: Congrads Lin Rose

I was waiting for someone who could articulate better than I on the wonderful article which appears in the latest Healey Marque newsletter. The descriptive article and pictures on Lin's accomplishment is superb. I really enjoyed following this labor of love and seeing the family support behind all the efforts.
Wonderful restoration, wonderful article.

Well said Roger! It was a superb piece and the photography was exceptional. Congrats to Lin!!

If you haven't checked out Lin's websete "The Bloody Beast" you really ought to spend some time with it....

It gives you an indepth look at much of what has gone into Lin's beautiful Bloody Beast.

Re: Congrads Lin Rose

Well shucks,guys! Thanks so much. Reid sent me a pdf of the article, but I haven't received my issue of the Marque yet. So I haven't seen the published version. Mail is slower to the right coast, I guess.

I appreciate your kind words.

It was fun to document everything on the web site, but my primary purpose was trying to help others who are starting their restorations. I got so much assistance from this Forum (Dave Russell is missed) and the healey list serve, that I felt obligated to try to help others.

This May when I make my cross-country trip (about 7,000 miles) we will find out how well I put the Beast together!

Cheers,

Lin
 
Re: Congrads Lin Rose

Yes, I was going to say something too. Great article! Nice Car!

Will you fix mine too??

:smile:
 
Re: Congrads Lin Rose

Mine just arrived, GOOD JOB! Really nice quality pictures, and giving your wife some notoriety goes a long way towards future car projects (read: E X P E N S E S). Remember that guys!

And Reid, if you're watching, I really like the idea of putting each contributors E-mail in your <span style="font-style: italic">Marque Matters</span>. Like thousands of others, that rarely express themselves, I think the <span style="font-style: italic">Healey Marque</span> is a top quality club magazine.
