Beautifully Presented Big Healey - The Ultimate 100-Six Driver

Still a highly capable open-top sports car today, this outstanding example presented here is what marque enthusiasts would consider the ultimate 100-Six driver. According to the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust, 41400 was completed on the 3rd of May 1957 as a LHD North American Export destined to the United States through New York. The car came well equipped with chrome wire wheels, overdrive, heater and laminated windscreen.

A sunny California car, finished in red paintwork over tan appointments, this particular roadster was subjected to a thorough and extensive rotisserie restoration completed in 2005. New equipment addressed during the restoration included: a complete Connolly Leather interior upholstery, wool carpeting, 72-Spoke chrome wheels w/195/70 - R15 tires, Stay-fast Canvas Top and Tonneau Cover, side curtains, front disk brakes with power booster, springs & shocks (front & rear), wire harness, brake lines, cables and virtually every available component on the vehicle! Three point belts and third brake light add safety in modern traffic, while spare assembly and weather equipment accompany the Healey. Additionally there is an extensive service and restoration file/binder that will accompany the sale.

The drivability of this 100-Six is simply unmatched; during the restoration it was upgraded with a beautifully worked 3000 Triple-Carbureted engine and drivetrain with Teflon bushing suspension, all dialed in with plenty test miles under its belt. In the years following its restoration, the car has be successfully toured, shown, driven and enjoyed extensively and is now ready for its next caretaker to continue the tradition.
Sporting a fresh tune and detailing, this beautifully presented "Big Healey" is the ideal candidate for enthusiasts of the classic sporting lines, raw power and handling so unique to these period British machines. We highly encourage a closer look at this fantastic turn-key tourer!
