[Healeys] Hard top brochure

[Peter Svilans]

Hi Patrick,

The hardtops for the convertibles were designed by Les Ireland at 
Warwick.  Originally the tops were moulded and assembled at Warwick, but 
later the whole production was handed over to Watsonian Sidecars.

Geoffrey Healey himself admits in his book 'The Healey Story':   
"Despite great attention to detail, hardtops invariably leak, and in 
addition, tend to rattle and creak", but did have some advantages over 
the soft top (increased interior space, saving weight, superb rear 
vision and room for a roll bar), and so were immediately adopted by the 
Competitions Department.

Best,

Peter
