Hi John

Looks good Abarth! Just needs a little dusting.

But the Riley isn't mine, I just happen to have a pick-up that can hold the engine!

I can put you in touch with the owner if you both agree, though.
 
Hi John

Yep no problem with me.

Send him to my website and he will find my email address

Yes, the Riley 2.5 was used in all Healeys before the Austin Healey.

Nearly true. It was in everything apart from the 3l Sports Convertible aka Alvis Healey, that (not surprisingly!) used an Alvis 3L straight 6 and the Nash Healeys that (equally unsurprisingly!) used Nash straight 6s.

In the Healey Silverstones, Abbots, Westlands, Sportsmobile, etc. etc.

True, it was in these and Elliotts, Tickfords and Duncans.
