I had a 1973 Jensen Healey up until about five years ago. I made the mistake of selling at that time. I have missed it ever since.

That 2 liter 907 Lotus engine with the dual overhead cams was a sweet setup. It was a quick revving little beast with very responsive handling. A very fun driver while a little short on looks.

I believe Huffaker was SCCA D champs for several years running in the 70's in a Jensen Healey. Check out:

You were put in your place by a very robust machine; nothing to be ashamed of mind you, just trying to feed too far up the food chain :-)
