From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Healey Motor Company was formed in 1945 by Donald Healey, a renowned auto engineer and successful racing driver. It was formed after Healy met Achille Sampietro, a chassis specialist for high performance cars.
The company was based in an old aircraft hangar in Warwick.
In 1953, a joint venture with the British Motor Corporation created the Austin-Healey marque.
