In the newspaper I noticed a photo of a Austin Healy 3000 leaving Anchorage 
Alaska as part of an "Around the World Challenge" rally going on right now.   
The caption described the rally as beginning in London on May 1 and scheduled 
to end in London July 18 after 19,245 miles.

I did a web search and came up with the Classis Rally Association page:   
<A HREF="http://www.carnet.co.uk/rallyoffice/";>Rally Office - home of London 
to Peking, Classic Marathon, Monte Carlo Challeng</A> 
http://www.carnet.co.uk/rallyoffice/

It is worth a look at the map, route news and participant list.   I noticed 
the following Rootes cars involved:   1933 Talbot AV 105 Alpine  and 1968 
Hillman Hunter.

The rally is in the Yukon now.
