Austin Healey: 100 and 300 Series (Crowood AutoClassic S.) - Tapa dura

The Austin-Healeys took the motoring world by storm in the 1950s and 60s and were not only immensely popular as production cars, but also enjoyed considerable success in rallying and racing. Conceived by Donald Healey, the Healy Hundred was an innovation in the sports car market, combining excellent performance with a competitive price. Austin-Healey went from strength to strength, until the merger of BMC with Leyland in 1968 brought development to a premature end. This detailed account gives a full biography of Donald Healey plus a history of the car, its competition performance and full specifications.
