Hello to all my old friends and new members. Have not been posting much lately but still stop by everyday to stay caught up on the posts.
I will be installing my new M. Lempert wheel and all the associated components in the coming weeks. Also I have found an origional rear end to rebuild to replace my nonorigional rear. This should be an interesting project. As parts are getting scarce, and I am curious as to what others will be doing, I will be upgradeing my brakes from Girling 14's to 16's or at least the mounting brackets and then using an aftermarket performance caliper.
Sorry carried on there for a bit.
The question. Does anyone have any information \ history on the Pat Moss URX727 Works Rally Car? I have done a lot of research on this but information is limited. It did just sell at auction last year. Any tid bits would be greatly appreciated. I am also still looking for a copy of "The Work's Big Healey". All offers considered. On any of the above topics leave a post reply or feel free to contact by Email.

A good spring and Healeying to all,

Thanks everyone so far for the help. Already some very usefull information has come forth both in history and reference material. Again being a member of BCF has been very benificial. Though not everyones cup of tea, I have been working with a very talented modeler building a replica of URX727 for a PC based rally game. This as often seems to be the case took me down the road of discovery into the Works cars and the life of Pat Moss. Topics that turned out to be very interesting, on a mechanical,technical,historical and personal level.

I understand that the purchaser,having spent a lot of cash, is then having the car rebuilt as it was rather tired!! It is said that it will be out and competing in historic rallyes.
