Comments from the seller

Austin Healey 100/6, 1956, originally sent to Philadelphia, US, I have owned this car for 10 years and have enjoyed it immensely but its time to move on, the car has side exit exhaust, sounds fantastic, electronic ignition, new brake booster, new clutch fitted at 18000miles, after market Koni suspension and a spin on oil filter upgrade. The engine is fitted with a 12 port head, not the 6 port as fitted from factory, I also have the Heritage certificate showing the date the car came of the production line, the configuration from new and engine and chassis number ( matching ) It has 72 spoke chrome wheels fitted with BF Goodrich tyres with plenty of tread which have never let me down, it has 3 point seat belts in front, replacing the lap style original belts. interior dash lights have been converted to LEDs so can be seen at night. The cooling system has been overhauled and never overheats, as can be seen in the photos it has a tonneu cover, a soft roof in good condition and bolt on windows which have not been fitted since I installed them when I first got the car. The body is painted in Healey Blue and is close to perfect with no scratches or dents, it has absolutely no rust, the car is currently on club plates so will be sold as unregistered. the car is currently in Pakenham
