Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1957 and 1965 the six-cylinder-engined Austin Healey evolved into a formidable and increasingly specialised rally car. By any standards, it was the first of the 'homologation specials' - a type made progressively stronger, faster, more versatile, and more suitable for the world's toughest international rallies. This book tells its story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the time the Austin-Healey 3000 appeared in July 1959, the Big Healey was a familiar sight on British and North American roads. The new models were hard to distinguish from their forebears by a cursory visual examination, but they incorporated one very significant improvement. This was a big-bore 2912cc version of the BMC six-cylinder engine. Not only was this more powerful than its 2638cc predecessor, but it was also more torquey. The result was that the Healey 3000 was faster through the gears and had a higher top speed than all of its standard-production forebears. In 1962, the triple-carburettor Mk. II version appeared, offering even more power but no real performance improvements from an engine that proved difficult to keep in tune. So the Mk. II convertible - with a proper soft top and 2+2 seating - reverted to twin carburettors, and the final Mk.III models introduced in 1964 looked to other means for their power increase. In their final years, the works Healeys became respected rally machines. The 3000, durable as it was, could not last forever: production came to an end late in 1967, largely because of the cost of modifying the car to meet safety and exhaust emissions regulations due to be introduced in the USA during 1968. A big Healey still has undeniable charisma, and these classic British sports cars of the 1960s are today much prized by enthusiasts all over the world. I hope enthusiasts will join me in welcoming this latest excellent addition to the Brooklands Books Ultimate Portfolio series. This book is a portfolio of contemporary reports featuring road tests, driving impressions, rallying, touring & advice buying a secondhand car. 208 pages, 600 illus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graham Robson is the doyen of writers on rallying. His new book, Works Healeys in Detail, joins his respected Works Triumphs and Works Escorts in our list. Here he tells of the story of Donald Healey’s introduction of the cars of his own make into the world of rallying and racing, from the Healey Elliott and Westland of the late 1940s through to the last racing Austin-Healey Sprite in 1967. In between he produced competition versions of the Austin-Healey 100 and 100S, the 100-6 and the gloriously successful 3000, a brutal and wayward machine that won countless international rallies in the 1960s in the hands of great drivers like Pat Moss, Timo Makinen, Rauno Aaltonen and Paddy Hopkirk, to name but a few. The book covers the career of each of the works cars individually: entries, drivers and results, with nearly all cars illustrated. In addition there is detailed colour photography of important surviving examples.

Download or read book The MGC GTS Lightweights written by David Morys and published by Veloce Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating insight into the production and career of the MGC GTS lightweights, this well-researched text is generously illustrated with rare photographs, race programs, and original artwork. In early 1968 a works competition MGC GTS scored the MG Car Company’s best ever result at the Sebring 12-hour race, finishing in tenth position. Buoyed by this success a second car was built, with both entered on the Marathon de la Route but without success. Closure of MG Competitions Department at Abingdon was not far off, however the team gallantly prepared both cars for their final race in 1969. Under the banner of the American importer the newer car finished in fifteenth position. The MGC GTS Lightweights covers the development of the production road car, its conception, compromised design and subsequent failure to attract loyal MG customers. This is followed by an in-depth technical analysis of the development, construction and build of the MGC GTS. Specific attention is given to the specialised components utilised, particular emphasis placed on the unique aluminium bodyshell that for the first time is laid bare. The competition history and race results are comprehensively covered, and lastly the subsequent fall from grace and rediscovery of these last and much loved MG competition cars to emerge from Abingdon.
