[Healeys] Custom bodied 100

[Perry]

The wrecked 100 and the rebodied car carry the same Italian license plate, 17-A-011.

I'm not convinced that it is the same car as pictured in the wreck.  There is a foreign licence plate in the original photo, and a US plate in the wrecked photo. The modification car has not one British part on it except maybe the wire wheels (chassis)...never a white steering wheel, and windshield from an Alfa?

I don't think you could do away with the Healey 100 sub-structure and come up with a lower, swoopy design unless you cut off everything but the chassis rails...even by a bus builder it seems far fetched. Of course, you could have done this (photo), and added that spiffy dash panel and a 350 crate engine.  Now that a real Healey mod. Hank

Listers,

Anyone know anything about this car?
