In 2002, to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the introduction of the Austin Healey, Peter and Ann, accompanied by Julian Bowen and his Navigator Laurence MacDowell in Julian's 1958 100/6, plus Clive Randall and his sister Pamela in their 1948 Healey Westland, drove Route 50 from the Atlantic Coast of the USA through to Lake Tahoe where the US Healey Club had organised a massive Healey meet, and then onto the Pacific Coast. Following slightly different routes back East, the three Healeys covered some 9,000 miles each in 5 weeks.
