Hi Bert - This photo is really very funny

Jim :

the car was painted about 1963, so it has held up fairly well

Didier :

"Cheer" Bert - Splendid !!!! Thanks Jim

Jim :

A copy of the original warranty for my 55 BN1.. Please note back in August 1976 when Donald was here in Cherry Hill New Jersey for the first national Healey gathering he signed the warranty as good for the next 10,000 miles. Would you believe I don't think I have put 10,000 miles on the car since 1976.

Didier : Your comments are very interesting, I suppose that Donald it's Mr Healey, 

Last year I googled the original owner of the car. He was still living at 92 and he lived about 20 miles from my home. I met him and his wife and shared photos of the car and Bert. A very nice couple. Sorry to say this past week I went to visit him again and I learned that both he and his wife had died within the last 6 months.

Didier : Thanks Jim
