[Healeys] Through-the-Windscreen-and-Over-the-Bonnet

[Patrick & Caroline Quinn]

G'day

 

I actually do have a photo of a BJ8 with Uluru or Ayres Rock in the
background, but as it's for the cover story of the next issue of the
Australian Austin-Healey you will have to wait.

Well if there is no picture of a Healey parked in front of Ayers Rock I
guess you know what you have to do... If not you, who?

As for the roo bar I immediately thought "Land Rover" wonder what it does
for the weight balance. Might save some body work though.

I did have second thoughts afterwards  about my post and thought that there
are plenty of spectacular places in Aust. as well particularly  along the
coast line.

 

It is pretty difficult however to top some of the desert scenery in the USA
where they obviously have very good access roads as well. Some of the high
country

is pretty spectacular too and I well remember driving through Glacier
National Park with about 20 Healey's one year following a West Coast Meet
(now Rendezvous)

that was pretty special 

 

A photo of a Healey parked in front of Ayres Rock ( Uluru now ) would also
look great although I have never seen one

Do you have one in your collection you can share?

 

By the way the Roo Bar on the Front of Barry's Healey looks pretty cool .You
could almost take on a Road Train with it. 

 

Cheers

G'day

 

Don't know if I wholeheartedly agree with Graeme on this point.

 

Australia certainly does have that type of majestic scenery, but it may not
be in very accessible places. After all Australia is the oldest land mass on
the planet.

 

Perhaps the attached photo of Barry Campbell's BN4 on the north coast of
Western Australia might be of interest.

Which is kind of ironic, since the only places outside the US and Canada I'd
like to visit are Australia and NZ.  Someday, I'll call upon you mates Down
Under to recommend an itinerary for a trip. 

 

If you get the chance, ship your Healeys to the US.  The US
Southwest--which, of course, is where this photo was shot (Arches National
Park in Utah)--is to die for as a driving excursion.  I'll meet you at the
dock in San Francisco and plot a course for you.

 

Cheers,

Bob

Wow

 

Wish we had some scenery like that in Aus. Would have my car out every day

Last one was well-received, so here's another.
