And I still have a question to which no one seems to have a
definitive answer: Why (not when) did "Austin-Healey"
become "Austin Healey"?
I've heard various theories including the one where the supplier made a
mistake and the factory took them at a discount and changed the company
name but that really makes little sense.
Does anyone *really* know the reason?

Wow, very nice car. If that is indeed the original material on the
