[Healeys] My BN1M signature.

[Mr. Bill]

Hi Michael, List,

It simply signifies that my 1953 BN1 was converted to M specs.  The 
original owner was a racer and after crashing his MGTD, purchased the 
BN1 and immediately fitted it with a Le Mans kit in 1954.  He did not 
purchase the louvered bonnet because why add a heavy steel panel when 
his early car, #663, had both an alloy boot lid as well as bonnet?

He then took the car to a First in Class win at the inaugural Road 
America at Elkhart Lake, WI in 1954.

I am the second owner of the car having purchased it 24 February, 1978.

Bill
