G'day

I suspect that the bloke is having trouble telling the difference
between a Austin-Healey and a Triumph TR2/3/4.

The Triumph 4-cylinder engine has its origins in the Ferguson tractor
and there is no connection with the Morris built C-series six-cylinder.

However I wonder if there is some connection with the highly secretive
Austin-Healey fitted with the Ferguson Research Formula Ferguson (FF)
four wheel drive system?

Subject: [Healeys] Healey motors.

Today,I was talking with a guy who formerly had a 1960 model of a
Healey.  He
claims that he had the word "Fergerson"stamped on the engine block.  We
are
both wondering if this is true or is his memory playing tricks.  Any
connection to the Fergerson tractor company.

Can anyuone share any light on this subject.
