**John Turner** · 5 Oct 2006, 18:24 (Ref:1729124)

What is this, a one to one, guys? Can I butt and ask about DD300? Isn't/wasn't it a Healey 3000, and this talk of Blackpool ...... TVR? I think you might find that you have lost most of us!

terence · 5 Oct 2006, 18:31 (Ref:1729131)

Sorry, John, DD300 was indeed a Healey, built by THE big Healey specialist John Chatham. He does still own it,I saw him at Silverstone a couple of months ago, and its still as strong as ever.So is John come to that.
