Hi,
I would like to know the racing history of my AH.

Austin Healey 100
Chassis Number = BN1-L/154641
Engine Number = 1B/207277
Body Number = 2817
Specification = LHD, North American Export
Date of build = april, 8, 1954
Destination / Dealer = Austin Motor Company of North America

Someone can help me?! :encouragement:

Thanks
 
IF you have any idea where your car may have been raced, many tracks are now posting results from many years ago. Typically listed by driver name, car type and number, not by the data you listed. BTW, is it wise to post all of your car data publically? I've started to cover my numbers at public events. I ran into a jerk mechanic who says he regularly "collects" VIN's to use to get titles on replicars.
 
Dear Mr. Mcflurry,
I have put together a database of 50's and 60's big Healey entries and results as found in North American race programs and racing newsletters. I have 1500 listings. Now that I am retired, I can probably add another 1000 in the next year or so. Chassis numbers mean little. A race number or a driver name mean the most.

Ken, my parents were quite active in the races at Watkins Glenn in the 50's and early 60's. I've got a number of race programs going back to 1953. If you don't have much from the Glen I'll scan entries this fall when nothings lighten up a little. Let me know if you need them.
