Doug,
I think it's interesting that if I was the original owner of this car, I would
call the radio a "factory" one. In reality, who knows? Did Motorola make a
special run for Healeys? Did the distributor or dealer commission some
special faceplates? All part of the fun of trying to determine what was
"original".

Rick,
It appears to be the standard Motorola AM radio fitted to most early
Healeys with the built in 5" speaker. It mounted to the heater case. The
AUSTIN HEALEY appears to have been added to the faceplate glass after the
fact, but it is, I believe, the correct radio for the car.
