Joe,
I had exactly the same thoughts about the Graham Robinson article ...
very interesting indeed. As far as "works" Healeys go, it's just easier to
think we have two "works" one for road racing, the other for rallying.

Subject: [Healeys] AUSTIN HEALEY MAG
I have just received my Oct. issue and was intrigued by the ;
The, if
undeliverable address, ------- Malmo, Sweden !!!!!!
Undoubtably an
international magazine.
I think it great that we have Graham Robson as Guest
Editorialist. Fantastic to have first hand stories from someone who was an
intergral part of the British sports car scene, in both production and
competition.
This months article, "Donald Healey's patrons....... who paid
the bills? ' is very interesting. I always saw Austin and then BMC management
as project managers and financiers to the Healey manufacture.
It raises the
old question for me, what is a 'works Healey' ?
Pre-production alloy cars
were DHM. Co
100.S were DHM. Co
Sebring race six cylinder cars were DHM.Co
Rally cars were the MG/BMC Competition Dept. run by BMC
Just a comment but
there are a lot of 'works Healey' replicas that look like rally cars!
