Rick Neville asked what engine would be used in the=E2=80=9D Hill Climb =
Car=E2=80=9D and I offered the info below. (with a couple corrections)

=20

Rick

This car competed in the Hershey Hill Climb (HHC) years ago. The HHC =
started back in 1958, so this Healey would have been nearly new when =
they had the first race.  However we have not been able to trace the =
exact years the car ran because of several factors but believe it ran in =
1964.=20

Because of the cars history, my Brother in law has decided to keep it in =
a semi-period race trim.  It will be using the Healey six engine and a =
center shift trans. =20

P

=20

For all who would enjoy some old racing footage, a bit of which has =
Austin Healeys in it, see the link to the 1964 Hershey Hill Climb.=20

http://slotblog.net/topic/81627-1964-hershey-hillclimb/

Check the time at 2:25 for a Healey crash.  A real tree hugger!

See 3:00 for car #90 that we believe is the old Healey racer currently =
in our garage.=20

Have fun.  These old timers must have been a bit crazy.=20
