Finished in graphite carbon fiber over gelcoat gloss black with grey and black interior, this exquisite little roadster is California registered with clean and clean California title as a 1967 Austin Healey.

Stopping power is provided by Wilwood four wheel disc brakes! Other noteworthy features include roll bar, BRAND new Yokohama tires mounted on staggered size Centerline 15" polished alloy wheels, JVC CD stereo with Pioneer speakers, Ivemar custom aluminum dash panel and trunk mounted fuel cell.

THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior, trim and underside of this fiberglass-bodied Austin is in fabulous condition throughout worthy of attendance at any local classic car showing!
THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos here, the interior of this automobile is in very good to excellent condition overall. ALL gauges, stereo, lights and blinkers are in excellent working order. There is no horn, the heater is disconnected and cosmetically it is in excellent condition with the exception of some wear and staining on the carpet and some other light wear spots. NOTE: the bucket seats are in a fixed position that work best for about a 5'-8" frame.
THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
Piloting this Austin Healey is a raw, visceral and heart-stirring occasion with blistering acceleration and thundering exhaust note from the stroked 383 engine, strong and direct shifting transmission,natural and responsive non-assisted steering and taut but not punishing suspension. This car is NOT for the faint of heart or for those who want to keep a low profile! This beautiful classic roadster gets LOTS of attention wherever it gets driven!
