Description

Small tossable and extremely fun right out of the box this freshly finished roadster is a virtually spotless classic that was professionally rebuilt by premier marque specialist Kurt Tanner. And if you're looking for a fully sorted fully pedigreed Austin that's also a blast to drive it's the 'big Healey' of your dreams! Roughly 40 miles out of a detailed reboot this impressive Mk III is one of Healy expert Kurt Tanner's fully documented nut-and-bolt rotisserie restorations. Finished in a smooth... coat of Golden Beige Metallic the car features top-notch rehab that was completed to Austin-Healey Club Gold Concours standards with the ultimate goal being absolute authenticity. Tilt the lightweight bonnet and you'll find 2.9 liters of 29A 6-cylinder that looks good and runs great! Behind that engine a rugged 4-speed serves up an awesome mix of curve-carving prowess and calm highway manners. Stops come courtesy of manual front disc and rear drum brakes. The car's chassis which rides on a familiar set of coil and leaf springs has been restored in a subdued mix of beige and black pigment. A factory manifold replacement pipes and traditional mufflers handle exhaust. And at the corners of the floor correct wire wheels spin 175/80R15 BF Goodrich Touring T/As around fresh knock-offs. If you're an enthusiast who likes to put their hardware on the pavement few classics deliver this blend of fun and exclusivity. And being fresh out of a Concours-level restoration this impressive Austin should fare very well at any gathering you choose to attend! Call click or visit for more information.
