Thanks to Rick and the LIST my car has just been reunited with the 1965
Sebring trophy presented to Geoff Healey,presumeably for the class wins
that year by the 3000 and Sprite.
Have not got the item in hand so I am not sure of;
Who supplied trophy and for what exact award
ANY EXPERTS OUT THERE
As a matter of interest the 3000 is almost identical to the OCTANE
magazine featured 1963 54FAC. [Dec. issue]
A note for all those 'works replica' gurus there was effectively two[2]
WORKS
Donald Healey Motor CO. built and owned cars [lightweight racers and
specials] and
BMC COMPETITION DEPT. built and M.G. Car Co. owned rally cars.
THANKYOU RICK for passing on what may have appeared a small item of
interest
A Very Happy Joe
