Saw this while Googling to see if Doris Day had any Healey connection. It may have been used in a Doris Day movie. Anyway, what do you think of it? How about as a BJ8 replacement with convertible top, roll-up windowa and a Rover V8? https://classicvirus.com/2014/03/12...Tc1LM8hxMgDgbIjDC5x7EsLx1_GBI_3W5zaqhfBxt9okg

Boy, that eccentric steering wheel looks like it would be really strange to drive.....I kinda like the Jag-like look to it.

I think it is nice looking BUT! As much as I like Corvettes I think the stylist that drew this took the front end directly from a Vette and I don't think the application belongs here. Also, that solid lower panel on the front end will certainly create a lot of lift. It does have a nice Jag like image from the rear quarter view without outright taking the lines directly from a Jag. My final issue is there is too much over hang on the rear. Just saying.

Looks like the love child of an E-type and a Sting Ray, not bad looking at all, but also not identifiable as a big Healey.
