2002

The Classic & Sportscar Trophy

This award was announced after the close of the first day at the Classic & Sports Car Show at the National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham, UK, on Saturday 9th November 2002.

Best Club Show/Event for 2002

"The winner was THE AUSTIN HEALEY CLUB & Phil Gardner for their week long 50th anniversary celebrations.
They had over 650 cars, including many from around the world, and had no less than 49 race/rally cars on display, with several of the original drivers reunited with these cars. Many visitors were from South Africa, Canada, Japan, Austria, Switzerland, Norway, USA, Australia, Norway, Germany, France. Belguim, Canada."
Well done to Phil & all his Committee on this great achievement.
Others in contention for the Best Club Event for the Year were:
Fiat 500; BMW 50; Triumph for their 25yrs jubilee; and Rover P5 for 'Classic on the Common'.

RevCounter Jubilee Shield 2002

This shield, presented to the Club by Ron Fitton, editor of Revcounter, and his wife May, is for the best submission for publication in the magazine during the course of the year. The award was presented in December 2002 to Mike Keen for his article in the August 2002 edition entitled Healey Ownership.

The Austin Motor Company Annual Competition Steering Wheel

This trophy was initially a bit of a mystery. It was found on a rubbish tip of all places, sometime around 2002, and offered to the Club.

As you can see, it was donated by the Austin Motor Company. Member Bill Cummings has since elucidated that it was the result of exchange visits between the UK and Dutch Austin Healey Clubs in the 1960s. The highlight of each visit was the driving test competition between the two clubs. It was first awarded in 1962 when the Dutch club won it, though it was never engraved to show this. In 1963 Great Britain won it, in 1964 Holland, and in 1965 the UK club again - the last time we believe this trophy was awarded.

The club is of course delighted to have this wheel back in the trophy locker.
