John McK ; The Viva V8 ? - no I don't, but the A-H 3000 yes !!



The Healey belongs to Les and Shirley Megget - from Wellington in the 1980's but have lived in South Auckland for many years after that.
The Rego " GM 171 " is now " LM 3000 ". The Car is two tone BRG over Ivory - and here is Les [ with beard and cap ] by the car. Photo from Masterton AHCCNZ Rally in 1989

This car was originally imported into NZ by Ian Richardson and it was metallic blue. Bill Clouston purchased the car off Ian and painted it BRG as seen in the above photo. I think Jim Reece bought the aftermarket hardtop off Bill (or Ian). Usually you have to remove the soft top to get a Works type Mk 2 or 3 hardtop on (rare beast), but the aftermarket one went completely over the convertible top in situ. Not so attractive, but far more practical as removal of a convertible model soft top is a lengthy and fiddly job.

Ross Thanks for the extra info - speaking of Bill Clouston - here he is at Jag Drag in 1977 at Meremere, I was there in my GT6 and Bill was in this ..





I was in this ;
