G'day
Duncan bodies were fitted to a number of chassis including Alvis, Allard,
Daimler and Healey. The body style was the same from the windscreen back
while marques like Alvis had their traditional bonnet and grille.
Of all the cars the Healey Duncan saloon was the most curvaceous.
As far as is know there were 4 differing body styles. Two differing
roadsters, the saloon and a tourer. Some 39 chassis were fitted with the
saloon body, including 1 tourer. Numbers of roadsters built is not known and
most were rebodied in other body styles.
Today the Association of Healeys Owners knows of 4 saloons, 1 tourer and 1
roadster.
