	Austin-Healey 4000, the car that never was.
		The Donald Healey Motor Company never got round to christening it, but they did build three of them (the story that four were completed is untrue.) The one we tested was kindly loaned to us by Frank Allenby.
		The combined names of Healey and Rolls Royce could have made great advertising material, and, where long distances are the way of life, such as in the United States, the character of the new Healey would have attracted a good following.
		Asking Healeys about a car that was, officially, never built (and that several years ago) inevitably leaves gaps in the information.

	Jensen Austin Healey Connection
		He too was dismayed at the discontinuing of the Austin-Healey 3000 and like a lot of us many years later, was surprised at the role played by Jensen in the construction of the big Healey, and yes he was interested in the ideas of DMH for a new sports car.
		What happen was that Leonard Lord of Austin (soon to feature largely in the decision to produce the Austin-Healey) had also seen the ‘PW’ at the show and set into production the similar looking Sheerline.
		It was also common knowledge in 1965 that Donald Healey was at loggerheads with George Harriman of BMC over the DHMC financial cut from big Healey manufacturing.
