<p>Apart from the technical mods which are impressive on their own,
this originally unimpressive car is an absolute beauty due to the
stunning colour combination.</p>

Bob, yes I love the Nash Healey, in my case the 54 Coupe is my
favorite, perhaps why I have 2 :). But as we are a bit of topic,
the attached is my 1949 Austin A70 ute. While Healey folk will say
the Healey 100 was a derivative of the Austin Atlantic,
realistically the Atlantic is just a big bore Austin A70 with a
different body. In the case of my A70 it has a 2720cc Atlantic
block with Australian "Head Stud Development" alloy head made for
the 100, higher compression, 290 degree duration cam ( Wade 149 ),
high lift rockers and chrome moly push rods coupled to a Toyota
Supra gearbox. It has a 3.55 diff on 16 inch Austin wheels with
high profile Continental tyres. Brakes are power assisted BJ8
front discs, and rear standard Austin drums. It happily cruises at
100 KPH ( 62 MPH ) at 2400 RPM with bags of torque.

Perhaps I have ventured off topic a bit but did work in Healey
where possible :)
