Austin - Healey
Austin-Healey cars were produced until 1972 when the 20-year agreement between Healey and Austin came to an end. Donald Healey left the company in 1968 when British Motor Holdings (BMC had merged with Jaguar Cars in 1966 to form BMH) was merged into British Leyland. Healey joined Jensen Motors who had been making bodies for the "big Healeys" since their inception in 1952, and became their chairman in 1972.
3 Litre Straight six engine- runs strong and powerful. Most have knock-off wire wheels. These cars were designed and engineered to be essentially maintenance free for the lifetime of the owner, so if you have any issues you most likely have what British Leyland refer to as "an anachronism" or "lemon". Bring the pesky thing in, and we can sort things out.
