[Healeys] Celebs with Healeys

[Tracy Drummond]

Quote from Nicolas Cage



"I nearly killed myself in my favorite car. I had an Austin Healey with a
Ford V8 engine placed into it like a makeshift AC Cobra. Then I hired a
mechanic to put in an automatic gearbox. I was driving on the 405 in
Hollywood, went to light a cigarette and my hand got stuck in the
transmission. I shifted the car from drive into park and the car fish-tailed
on the freeway. I went into a 180-degree spin and ended up facing traffic
head on. All I could see was this huge truck coming towards me; the driver
got on the CB loudspeaker and screamed at me to put the car into reverse. I
was in total shock and I just did it. I reversed all the way back until I
found an exit. It was crazy. I could have died - so for a while I was in a
very odd state of mind. It's probably the most dangerous thing I've
survived."
