[Healeys] Healey Silverstone in Mille Milia

[Quinn, Patrick]

G'day

Of real interest to lovers of Healey History was that Healey Westland GWD 43
also took part in the 2009 Mille Miglia.

This is the same car that Donald Healey drove in the 1948 Mille Miglia with
Geoff Healey as co-driver. In that event they were way over 100mph when they
struck a dog but still managed to finish 9th overall. Against such marques as
Ferrari, Alfa Romeo and Maserati driven by the likes of Nuvolari, Ascari,
Sanesi and Cortese it was a very credible finish.

If you would like to see GWD 43 under restoration have a look at:
