"Fourintune in Octane Magazine
"
Tom Kovacs, owner of Fourintune Garage, was interviewed by Octane Magazine for an article regarding an early Austin Healey 100 with M spec modifications. The car will be sold this weekend at the Gooding Auction in Monterey, CA. The Healey is a BN1 similar to just a handful of others that Fourintune has restored.
Conversations with Geoff Healey several years ago about these early BN1 cars indicate that possibly as many as 400 BN1 models were converted to some version of the LeMans spec at the Cape. A one page, two-sided brochure for the LeMans Spec cars lists the cars as having a three-speed transmission with overdrive - only available on BN1s.
To read more about the BN1 Healeys that have LeMans modifications done at the factory, check the April 2009 issue of Healey Marque and the March/April 2009 issue of the Austin Healey Magazine.

This BN1 was restored in 1991 at Fourintune and has all the LeMans modifications.
