Auction description:
The Clem Smith Collection(#152MG) 20/08/2017 4:00 PM AEST
Lot 1 of 57: 1954 AUSTIN-HEALEY 100/4 BN1
Estimate: $75,000 - $85,000
Held in the collection for 35 years
Chassis No: 156390
Engine No: 1B213508
This car was bought for the collection for nostalgic reasons as Clem had competed in the 1955 Australian Grand Prix at Port Wakefield in a similar Austin-Healey. This 100/4 is believed to have been built in around May 1954 supported by the Austin of England script badge on the bootlid and no rear reflectors. It was acquired in 1982 from Mr. John W Read in original condition with a reconditioned engine and gearbox. It has since been fully restored at Findon Crash Repairs in green and trimmed with a striking tan interior by Rory Collins. It has twin SU carburettors; Girling 11in drum brakes front and rear; wire wheels and is accompanied with a complete tonneau set and side curtains.
