This 1960 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk1 Rally Car was wheeled by a pair of ladies entrenched in motorsports–Pat Moss and Ann Wisdom. The duo would go on to pilot this very car to win the Liège-Rome-Liège rally, also known as “The Marathon.”
Pat Moss was the sister of arg…
Pat Moss and Ann Wisdom actually began their rally victory list driving none other than the lowly Morris Minor. Pat supposedly named hers "Granny" - most like.y named for the type of person who usually bought Minors. Both of them purportedly thought the Minor was a great rally car, being both capable and tough. While the big Healey's were certainly tough (and fast), both women thought they were real bears to drive and neither enjoyed driving them.
In reply to TommyBoyUSA :
Thanks for the additional information! The Moss-Wisdom duo seemed like quite the pair of racers.
