It used to be rather common for major automobile manufacturers to build =
the chassis and drive trains only and then turn them over to a coach =
builder for the body. The Fisher Body Co, built bodies for Abbot, Buick, =
Cadillac, Chalmers, Chandler, Chevrolet, Curchfield, Elmore, EMF, Ford, =
Packard, Studebaker and a bunch of other car makes. There used to be an =
oval nameplate on the driver=E2=80=99s side sill saying =E2=80=9CBody by =
Fisher=E2=80=9D on those that they finished. I had an 1966 Oldsmobile =
Cutlass with this name plate. For years they were a subsidiary of =
General Motors who fully absorbed them and discontinued the =
=E2=80=9CBody by Fisher in the 70=E2=80=99s or 80=E2=80=99s or so. Thus =
the Healeys having Jenson build the bodies was apparently normal for the =
industry.

It should be remembered that as far as Healey cars are concerned that =

They made rolling chassis where the bodywork were fitted by outside =

In total 1,287 Healey cars were built between October 1946 through to =
