[Healeys] 'Standard' Cars without heaters

Hello Richard

It was unusual for the Australian delivered four-cylinder cars to be fitted
with a heater as were the 100/6s. The 100s and 100/6s when new were imported
into Australia by BMC.

The 3000s are very different as none were imported into this country by BMC.
Just 24 3000s were imported new into Australia and all except 1 came in via
dealers. Most were fully optioned including heaters.

Hoo Roo

Patrick

Does that not imply that new Austin-Healeys fitted with heaters were rare in
your part of the world, no?

Richard, from your true south.
