Description of 1956 Austin Healey Other

1956 Austin-Healey 100s are rare and very collectable British sports cars. Only about 4900 were made. This car was restored to a very high level about 8 years ago according in Arizona to the previous owner’s family. Since that time it has been driven only 400 miles and was stored in optimal conditions resulting in a vehicle that looks freshly restored. According to the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust document. it was originally white but is now beautiful Red over Black two-tone with an interior of black with red piping seats and black carpets. This roadster also has a black soft top in like new condition. The original twin-carb four-cylinder engine is backed by the original four-speed manual transmission with electric overdrive. Austin-Healey 100 BN2s feature a unique fold-down windshield and wire wheels with knock-off hubs. The paint and chrome are to show level. Every screw and bolt is clean. The underside is as clean as the top. I doubt you could find another example of a numbers matching Austin Healey 100 restored to original condition as good as this one. The body was checked with both a body filler and paint meter and was determined to be solid metal through out. This is a unique opportunity to own an icon of Austin-Healey history. Examples of this model in this condition rarely come up for sale. Inspection is encouraged and available by appointment. More pictures will be added daily. If you want a picture of a particular item. please ask. Car has open title and registration. NOTE: The winning bidder will be offered the option of purchasing a 2011 Haulmark 20’x8. 5’ enclosed trailer (see picture) for $3500. This trailer is NOT being offered as a separate item. This trailer was used as temporary storage for the Austin-Healey. It is in like new condition and I doubt it has more than 200 miles on it.
