Colour photographs of cars old and new complement a selection of cutaway and detail drawings and a wide range of contemporary black and white photographs. This material IS published in this book together for the first time as it appeared in Autocar during those three decades .It provides a unique record of outstanding interest for marque enthusiasts and motoring historians.Autocar articles 1945 Specification for Performance,1946 2.4-litre Healey 13,1948 Healey-Duncan Two-seater: "The Spiv" ,1948 Mille Miglia ,1948 2.4-litre Healey Roadster Road Test ,1948 Healey Sportsmobile ,1949 Healey Silverstone,1950 Healey Silverstone,1950-51 Nash- and Alvis-engined Healeys,1952 Healey Abbott Convertible: Used Cars on the Road, 1952 Nash-Healey with Pinin Farina Body,1952 Healey Tickford Saloon Road Test ,1952 3-litre Healey Sports Convertible, 1952 Special-bodied Healey,1952 The Healey Hundred,1953 Nash-Healey for Le Mans,1953 Austin-Healey Hundred Road Test, 1954 Sports Car Racing,1954 Austin-Healey100S,1955 On the Road with the 100S,1954 Austin-Healey Records: 1955 Profile: 1954 Austin-Healey,1956 Austin-Healey 100-Six1956 Austin-Healey Records: 1958 Austin-Healey 100-Six Road Test ,1956 More Power for Healey,1958 Austin-Healey Sprite ,1958 Austin-Healey 100-Six Road Test 1959 Austin-Healey 3000 2.9-litre Engine
