The C engine, with a few minor changes, was also used in the Austin
3-liter limousine. There's a picture of one on page 200 of Lindsay
Porter's B restoration book. He recommends C owners keep one in the garden
as an emergency transplant donor.
And of course, the MG Midget DID originate as the Austin-Healey
Sprite. But wasn't your beloved 1100 also a badge engineered
Austin?
