When I replied just a few minutes ago to Steve Byer's message I did not
view the full string of messages and I see fromold posts attached to Ed
Kaler's message/site that I have been asking this same question since
2001--which is pretty interesting given that I often tend to forget what
seemed important just a few minutes earlier.
In any case though I know this issue hardly rises to the level of important
it is a curious occurrence. I can understand how badges got used out of
sequence, but since the name "Austin'Healey" was an established brand and
probably protected under UK and/or worldwide patent-trademark laws it makes
me wonder why BMC would have intentionally changed the name of its product,
albeit only by the omission of a dash.

Now that we are all focused on the badge I would like to put out a<br>
question--one that I have asked before and never received what seemed<br>
to have been a definitive answer:<br>
<br>
How and when did "Austin-Healey" as written on the earlier badges=
<br>
become "Austin Healey" as was done on the badges for later cars?<=
