Dr. George Snively -- Austin Healey 100-6

California State Fairgrounds, Sacramento, California, September 30, 1956. Dr. George Snively, head of the Snell Foundation (racing helmet research) rounds Turn 6 in his Austin Healey 100-6 on his way to 1st in Class, 3rd Overall in the Governor's Trophy Race.
 

(1-28-10)   From Rick Neville:

"I think the picture of Dr. Snively's Healey provided by Ron Yates here   may be in error.  The pic identifies the car as a 100/6, taken in 1956.  The 100/6 wasn't released until 1957. 

Before the 100/6, Snively raced a 100M and the louvered hood and supports for the fold-down windshield of the 100M identify the car in the picture as the M.  The car appears to be properly identified here."
