BACKGROUND
In 1953 Donald Healey had an ambition to take the 24-hour endurance record. In 1954 a standard chassis was prepared with a modified Weslake designed cylinder head, 16 inch Dunlop peg drive wheels and Dunlop disc brakes (a first in production sports cars). There were a small number of aerodynamic modifications with a small aero screen and head fairing plus an air-cooled battery compartment in the right hand passenger compartment.
