[Healeys] Fx4D = Bighealey?

[Austin Healey]

Thats nice. I realy liked the suspension of the Cab. Though it was by far
not "sporty". I think after the WWII, it was a realy rationnal move to use
the same parts.
It is good to hear, as I have made nice contacts for the suspension
parts+have many items laying somewhere in my storage.
