Tim,

I can see why the J-H would be at the back of the line since Chapman never made a car that wasn't cool, however you might consider moving it up just by virtue of the fact that the J-H is going to be easier and a lot cheaper to acquire than just about any Lotus.

I've always had a thing for the Éclat since I saw one on a dealer's showroom. Unfortunately they're extremely hard to find and from what I've heard they have a really scary rust problem in the rear chassis.

As far as the club thing goes, you might suggest to the local J-H guys instead of a club just have a monthly get together for beer and piazza and bull, that's all our club meeting really is. Usually 4 or 5 J-Hs show up along with 2 or 3 other guys who like Healeys.
