    hi
    on wednesday 26th august at 7:30 pm
    the austin healey factory has invited us to a guided tour of its premises at factory 73 heatherdale rd ringwood
    , this is an excellent opportunity to see how rusted, busted ,healeys go in one door ,dismanteled repaired,
    and go out the front door in concourse winning condition .
    worth about $85.000 ,its a great night
    there are limited numbers so let me know ASAP
