Hello
The history of Austin-Healeys in Cuba is very interesting with examples rem=
aining fitted with different six-cylinder engines and gearboxes.
Pre-Castro the 100/6 was exported to Cuba in CKD (Completely Knocked Down) =
for local assembly using many local components.

Subject: [Healeys] Cuban Chrome
I was channel surfing this morning and came to Motor Trend channel. There =
is a program called Cuban Chrome. I happened to come across Season 1, Epis=
ode 4 and saw the back quarter of an Austin-Healey. It was a 1959 100. =
The program follows Cubans that are restoring or repairing mostly American =
cars so they can join the local car club and they can make money using the =
cars to transport tourists around. I came back to it on episode 7 and they=
spent time with the AH doing body work. The owner has a friend who lives i=
n the US and brought him some parts including a "3000" trunk flash. For th=
e 100? It will be interesting to see how this project turns out. For more=
info, if interested, go to Discovery.com/cubanchrome.
