There is some 'Healey' content

I think they just grafted a 100 windscreen onto a blob of fibreglas; couldn't possibly be a Healey under there...

... could it?

I won't even comment on the white one!

:wink:

Looks like Healey doors though........

Hello Frankenhealey/RandyForbes,

You know that these cars are the result of someone not knowing how to spend their time wisely/meaningfully.

If i had the space I think it would be good to take that '56 and discard the add- ons and replace them with original panels.

Together with a full photo set before/during/after. Rather than the other way around.

Randy,I agree with you on the "white" car. I was going to say that at least somebody was paid to do it but then realized that the reason it is in the US Marshals auction is probably because they didn't pay for it. Or for something they did/didn't do.

Best regards,

bundyrum.

Bundyrum,

The story on another forum is that the guy spent his ill-gotten gains on a lot of the automotive 'icons' in the Marshall's auction. General consensus is that money doesn't necessarily mean good taste!

Cheers,

Ian

The "93" Healey is a Sebring replica and the 56 is also described as a replica. Neither have any real Healey content.

My motto is: "Good taste is its own reward". That goes for most of us with Austin-Healeys doesn't it?
I kind of like the thrust forward air intake on the red car, but not much else.

Hello pan,

So does that mean we will see one on your BN1 soon?. I can't see one being on the Sprite somehow so that's why I asked.

Best regards,

bundyrum.
