After he purchased it from a longtime personal friend, and owner of the car for the better part of 35 years, it proceeded to begin into the restoration journey in 2016.

This garage kept, and virtually rust-free vehicle was completely stripped and placed on a rotisserie to bring it back to its original condition and factory appointed color. Even minor areas of concern were professionally treated and repaired before hours of body and undercarriage preparation. It would then be expertly painted with DeBeer automotive paint and entirely clear-coated for optimum protection and years of high gloss shine! The original engine was fully rebuilt and internally balanced with all new internals. This Austin Healey has traveled just 3,874 miles since completion and had been thoroughly vetted in all weather conditions. Included with the sale with be a copy of the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate showing that the car remains presented in the original color combination while continuing to retain all original drivetrain components (original transmission & overdrive unit included) and factory body tags. A book highlighting some of the restoration photos is also included with the sale. Every vintage automobile enthusiast hopes to buy a car from this kind of previous ownership care and preservation.
