Nice Nasty Boy for Sale

[turtle]

I'm not associated with the seller but if after reading HealeyRick's great Nasty Boy article you feel the need for one of these beasts, here's a really nice one with an interesting history. It's a 1956 like mine so all the nice old big Healey bits with attitude. While I like the more stock look, I did giggle when I looked at the difference between the front wheels and back... classy up front... race car in back.

For some reason the word 'bootylicious' comes to mind.

The builder probably wore a mullet.

Double post, sorry.

I can imagine Dirk Diggler and Reed Rothchild driving that one. It's truly hideous (IMHO).

Thanks for the compliment, Janelle. I wish there were some pictures of how it ran at Sebring as I like these early conversions. The dash plaque is for a participant in the 1961 SCCA Divisional races at Sebring, not the Sebring 12 hr international race. Here's Bud Dana at the Nassau Speed Weeks in 1960 with his Chevy-Healey:

That 1955 looks like one bad decision after another . . .

My favorite Healey 100 V8 conversion, a real sleeper. https://bringatrailer.com/2010/11/28/impressive-build-1956-healey-100-gurney-weslake-v8/

Cool picture of Bud Dana's Chevy V-8 car in 1960.
