Rinus, I appreciate and thank you for your information, and I apologize =
to all if my earlier post had some incorrect statements.
When the effort to establish a Healey Museum at VIR was going on, I was =
in contact with some of the principals of that effort. When it became =
clear that the VIR museum was not going to happen, I had a discussion =
with someone involved in the abortive effort who told me what had =
happened. I think it was only a few months later that it was announced =
that there would be a Healey museum in The Netherlands. I thought I was =
told that the effort to create a museum was being transferred to The =
Netherlands, but that may have been only an assumption on my part due to =
the timing of the demise of the VIR museum and the announcement of the =
museum in The Netherlands.
=20
If the first of the three 4000s (the ex-Cox car, and the prototype) was =
created by widening a standard BJ8 body (one of the 17,712 BJ8 chassis =
built?), and if the original body number of that car can be determined I =
would very much like to know what it is. =20
=20
Happy Healeying!

I read several errors in the previous posts about the 4000
There are three 4000 in existence and one replica built by three =
friends in England in the 70s on a 100/6 chassis. This car is owned by a =
Healey enthusiast and lives in Belgium
=20
The green car that belonged to the Cox family is factory build on a =
original BJ8 chassis that is widened by 6=E2=80=9D in the middle.
=20
After the design was approved there where six chassis made with the =
right dimensions. They started to build two cars leaving four chassis =
unused. When the whole project was canceled and the production stopped =
those two cars were not ready and DMH bought these two cars privatly and =
brought them over to Trebah where he lived.
DMH together with Roger Menadue finished these two cars, one was sold =
and they kept one. Bic used this car from time to time.
=20
The Cox car was sold to Hans van de Kerkhof in the Netherlands and is =
now on lone to the Healey Museum in the Netherlands
=20
The White car that was bought from Arthur Carter by Alan Casavan for =
the Museum in the USA was sold to Daniel Slatter. Although it was for =
sale in Germany it is as far as we know still owned by him.
=20
The Roland car in Australia was involved in a bad accident and one of =
the remaining four chassis was used to restore this care. In resent =
years the car has been restored and got his original O.E. White colour =
back.
=20
The three remaining chassis are still known and one of them has in the =
meantime been built up as a rolling chassis with one off the special =
designed twin cam RR engines. (Whole new story)
=20
In the Healey Museum we have the whole story with all the 4000 RR =
Factory paperwork.
=20
I also want to mention that the previous message that the USA Museum has =
moved to the Netherlands is wrong.
The Museum in the Netherlands has nothing to do with the previous =
attempt to establish the Healey Museum in the USA.
=20
All the material that Alan Casavant collected was sold to a private =
person and is now locked away for the Healey world.
No items or persons from the =E2=80=9CUSA Museum=E2=80=9D are connected =
or found there way to the Museum in the Netherlands.
