I am helping sell this super-cool, one-family-owned, extremely-desirable, very-rare, 1963 Austin Healey Mark II BJ7 convertible, to help settle the estate of a classic car lover. It has been stored in the family's barn for the last 35 years. It has a mostly-straight, fairly-solid body - with some patched spots and patina. It is not a show car... It is a good car, with touch-ups and other paint flaws. We hosed the dust off and took pictures of all angles, so you can see how good this car really is. There is nothing perfect about this, but there is a lot of good. This Austin Healey is a great find.
I was asked to get it running. We pulled it out of the barn, put in fresh gas, a battery, oil in the cylinders and started it right up. It starts, runs, shifts, brakes and sounds good. It was converted many years ago from its original, inline 6-cylinder drive-train to a Ford, inline 6-cylinder and automatic transmission. The original Austin Healey engine (#29F/RU/H493) pictured comes with the car, if you would like to have it. The interior and convertible top also look pretty good. It has a solid undercarriage. They had a nice set of radials installed on the knock-off wire wheels. The car is 95% complete.
This is truly a great project - climbing in value every year. The current NADA Book Value is: Low-$35,600; Average-$80,100; High-$155,500. Do not let these values stop you from making a bid today. This car is being sold with absolutely NO RESERVE. I have 100% positive feedback (please read) because I don't exaggerate the condition of cars.
