Thanks for posting the pictures Mike sounds like you had a GREAT time. Looks and sounds like there were some really nice rides there (including yours). It had to be great to have someone appreciate the Healey enough to make an offer like that.

Now, just a word of advice……

“……..An ice cream vendor with a churn powered by a John Deere hit and miss engine. I’ve seen these before at various shows. I wish I had one of these old engines just so I could fire it up occasionally and listen to it run……….”


DON'T DO IT Sure you think you can just have it sitting there and listen to it run once in a while.

But then you realize one day it should actually be doing something. Next thing you know you’re hanging a line shaft in the shop and hunting antique tools for the engine to drive, hell maybe even building a can crusher just to have an excuse to run it.

It’s a disease as bad as old cars I tell you. and I should know.
