Patrick,I searched many of my old magazines but could not find a Lucas Ad s=
pecifically referencing Austin-Healey.However, I did find two interesting i=
ssues of "The Autocar" of special interest.2 July 1954 has a full page adve=
rtisement on the back cover by Wilmot Breeden with a beautiful engraving of=
 an Austin-Healey 100 parked in front of a cricket pitch. It is in black, g=
reen & yellow. I think I have sent this to you before but I can scan it aga=
in if you want it.
October 2, 1953 (The Autocar) contains 20-40 congratulatory Ads from every =
supplier imaginable including Austin-Healey's own self congratulatory Ad fo=
r world record smashing performance. "World's fastest production car under =
3000 cc. capacity". Many are full page Ads. Lucas has a full page Ad on the=
 back cover for their headlights, but does not mention Austin-Healey. Since=
 many, if not most or even all, British car manufacturers used Lucas electr=
onics they probably did not want to offend any customers. =C2=A0
