" Roger,
I don't think this Healey NOJ 392 will be towing a boat anymore ! "
Very expensive tow vehicle for a " Tinny ".
I agree !!

Probably the most famous " modified " Australian AH 3000 - Ross Bond- the wheel flares just got bigger and bigger..
Small photo of a " Big " Healey.
The car that featured at Torrey Pines in January 1956 - see Ken H thread on ;
" Early Days of Hot Rodding and Racing in Santa Barbara and beyond. " The car entered by W Pringle and driven by Roy Jackson-Moore and a certain S Moss
The car was in the first 10 100S built and " Despatched " in February 1955 mostly [ six ] to New York,
One went to Canada AHS3503 and AHS3510 went to a UK owner.
The car went to Gough Industries in Los Angeles but the customer is not mentioned
[ the other of the first ten cars all had purchasers named including Briggs Cunningham with AHS3501 which was unusual in that it was white with stripe ( blue ) and not Ivory over Black like the others ].

This AH 100 featured in NZ Classic Driver back in the July - August 2017 issue.
John Vevers photos from Caffeine and Classics 28 March 2021 [ yesterday].
Good to know it gets out and about. last saw it in 2017 in its own garage.
BMCBOY took HL3000 to the 2021 Brit-Euro show - I wasn't there but John Vevers a BMC Guy was - John is into Austin 3 Litres, the 1800 style car with bigger bonnet [ to accommodate the straight Six - in line not the " C " series but a later development by BMC ] and boot.
A series of photos John Vevers took - he also took a lot of BMC/BL standard 8 / 10 and Wolseleys 6/99 and 6/110 etc.
Triple carbs were not normally on a 1959 AH 3000 [ MK 1 ] they were in 1961 -62 only, then back to Duals 62-63 on.
A picture of the car when Bill Dunster had a racing accident sits on the front seat
John was obviously fascinated with the engine
