This strong driving attractive looking Austin Healey has needs with good bones to build from.The mechanics on this car are exceptionally strong.The car is faster and stronger than most Healeys we get through our shop,I do not have an explanation,it just is.The car is really a fun one to drive,it is tight,strong with an aftermarket exhaust that gives it an even deeper tone than the factory style exhaust.Car has the sound of a rally car.The suspension is tight,the wire wheels are true with a fresh set of tires mounted.The overdrive works as designed,the transmission tight with good synchros and no noise.Clutch is good,brakes stop even and straight..One of the previous owners did the ultimate no /no on the body and glazed over beading seams,it looks great,really gives it a smoother line.To show it was not done due to rust I have removed the wheels and provided pictures of the seams from the underside.The car is not a "rust bucket" but not a virgin either.Review the pictures of the vulnerable areas and discern for yourself if this car will fit in your comfort level.Note the inner sills,floor boards,out riggers and frame are all good as well as the bottom of the front wings,rear quarters and doors.Doglegs have been worked as most Healeys have been.Review the pictures posted,if the car is a fit for you,contact me at 615-971-4409.Price includes dealer doc fee.Less than full price then a $299 dealer doc fee will be assessed to final agreed upon transaction price.
