"BN3" Evo at Healey Week

I thought I'd highlight the BN3 Evo that was at Healey Week in Monterey... for those who didn't want to go thru all my photos that I posted earlier.

This car was a big highlight for me. I was wonderfully confused and a bit awe-struck when I saw it.

The top of the show card is what I was referring to. I hadn't seen the bottom part.

IMO the car should have been in the Modified class, not the BN6 - BN7 class - as it doesn't have a Healey engine.

Yeah, I didn't get why it wasn't in the modified class either. It's like he didn't want to hang with with the riffraff.

I can say that as a member of said riffraff.

Mine's easy... it's a small block Chevy 400 :encouragement:
I like to think the donor car was an Impala or Chevelle maybe even a wagon!

Far from stock, I guess that's why I dug the Evo so much.

A the Monterey Healey Week awards banquet it was interesting to see both an original 100M Le Mans and the BN3 EVO together side-by-side. When staging, the 100M had all the character and charm of an Austin Healey, the BN3 Evo was alluring, but lacked IMHO lack character...it just didn't have the visceral appeal - sound and smell. I liked it though, again very alluring and likely $$$$. GONZO

I did, at one time, but seem to have dropped that bit. I do know it's not related to '100M,' I think it's something to do with where it was manufactured--Abingdon, maybe--and all the 100 engines would have it.
