Britain, Healey sold a model with Hodges' original Nash-Healey bodywork as the Healey Sports Convertible. The Nash grille was replaced by a different piece, the power bulge in the hood was deleted, and other minor features such as a scuttle vent, fog lamps, and revised wheel covers, were added. Powering the car was a inline six cylinder engine from the Alvis TB 21 fed by two SU carburettors. Built on a G-Type chassis, it is commonly called the Alvis-Healey'''. The Alvis-Healey also used the clutch and transmission from Alvis, and replaced the Nash-Healey's torque tube rear drive with a rigid Salisbury axle suspended on coil springs and located by trailing links, with the drive reaching the rear axle via an open Hardy-Spicer driveshaft. Approximately twenty-five examples were built. References Further reading External links Nash vehicles Rear-wheel-drive vehicles Grand tourers Pininfarina Cars introduced in 1951
