Austin-Healey

Austin-Healey was a British sports car marque created in 1952 as the result of a partnership between Donald Healey of the Donald Healey Motor Company and the Austin division of the British Motor Corporation (BMC). The marque is best known for lightweight, driver-focused sports cars such as the Healey 100, 100-6, 3000 and the Sprite. There is limited formal documentation about a single, consistently used corporate logo — Austin-Healey cars were typically identified by model-specific badges and script nameplates, and contemporaneous branding often used simple Healey or Austin script/badges combined with radiator or bonnet badges from Austin/BMC. Production of Austin-Healey cars ceased in 1972, but the marque remains celebrated by owners' clubs and historic motor sport organizations worldwide.
