I've just finished reading an interview with Bobby Rahal in the April issue of the UK magazine "Motor Sport". The last paragraph says: "In my garage are some of the cars I dreamed about as a kid - a Healey 100M in Florida green......."
Has anyone ever seen Mr. Rahal's collection?
 
Tom Kovacs / Fourintune restored Rahal's factory 100 M , completed it last year. Rahal' has a connection to Healeys The story goes is that his father raced a 100M and they were at Road America when his father damaged it and the stayed up all night repaired it and he raced the next day. I was told Bobby was 10 years old at the time.

My my claim to (cough cough) fame is that I supplied the crankshaft that is now in the engine. I had it on the shelf for years and no longer needed it. I saw the car at Tom's shop during the restoration.
 
Thanks Rick, but I don't see the 100M!
