[Healeys] Sebring 3000's

[Patrick & Caroline Quinn]

G'day

I have had the pleasure of driving two of the Sebring 3000s and can say that
while the '63 cars (54 FAC, 56 FAC and 57 FAC) did not have overdrives
fitted, the 1965 car (DAC 953C - a BJ8) certainly does and has since new.

I cannot speak for 767 KNX.

Sorry. Wrong car.

IIRC, none of the Sebring Healeys had overdrive, and 767KNX is claimed to be
very original.
