Austin-Healey 100/6 BN4
Photos taken at earliest opportunity upon arrival during damp conditions so the vehicle is not presented in best light, new photos can be taken on request.
Built in 1957, this Austin-Healey 100/6 is an original RHD example, shipped to Perth, Australia where it lived in a dry state for most of its life before shipping to the UK in 2016. All import duties and taxes are paid.
The history file and maintenance record boast a good amount of detail with history tracing back to 1976. The 2.6 100/6 engine was rebuilt in the 1980’s to uprate the 2.6 to 3 litres, just like a 3000 MKI. The car retains the original side change gearbox. The car was maintained by reputable Australian workshops, The Healey Factory, Melbourne where the car was purchased by the previous owner before export to the UK.
Upon arrival to the UK the car was used and enjoyed before sale to the current owner. We saw the car in 2021 where it was discussed to have some light restoration and repair work completed. The subsequent inspection found some corrosion that needed some attention, this was completed, and underside corrosion was repaired and treated. The front suspension was rebuilt, brakes overhauled, improvements to reliability were fitted in the form of alternator conversion and electronic distributor, just to name a few. The interior was professionally retrimmed in Connolly leather, including a hood and tonneau. The car looks absolutely fantastic inside and it is a fantastic place to be and enjoy classic motoring.
The car drives very well, as you would expect and looks great inside, out and under the bonnet. Having benefited from substantial investment from the current owner, you will benefit from all of this work and peace of mind.
The car is on site and available to be viewed, inspected and test driven. It is ready to go…
