Chaff 3,590 Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 Standard upgrade on the v6 version lol Mate had a 3.1 the rear 2 cylinders were bored out not for performance but to thin the water jacket to stop it from overheating.

jok 3,211 Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 Did you see the Austin Healey in white and gold leaf going under the hammer with, I belieVe, Bonhams, in New York. That car was my original dream and I could have bought one from Lord Hesketh when I lived in Northampton. Only because I worked for the local newspaper and had the contacts then. Lol. What a car.
