Re: Nash Healey with History
There is a guy in the Upper Mississippi Valley region of the Nash
Club (NCCA) who collects vintage Nash speed equipment and has the
parts on his car. The stuff is very rare and expensive. That why I
said not very much. but there is some equipment for that Nash engine.
I've only every seen this one guy have any thing. The Nash-Healey s
that raced Lemans also had some modifications, another reason I did
not say none. The Healeys also went so far as to do a different head
design for the engine and raced at Lemans. It was not that
successful. It was a very weird setup if I remember correctly an
OHC with push rods. Just did not make a lot of sense to me the way
it was setup. The Nash-Healey s almost all of which that raced were
fairly highly modified. They were competitive in there class and did
reasonably well in the over all race. Never won over all , but placed
well against much better cars from full out factory teams from
Europe. I'd have to dig some this stuff up and the list does not
allow pictures, if any one wanted to see the stuff. LRDaum
