History:
This car was shipped to U S dealer in Dec. 1966 and first registered in 1967.
In 1992 it was purchased by the present owner, out of the estate of the second owner who kept it garaged indoor from 1969 to 1992, 23 year period at the end of which it had covered 32 000 miles Upon purchase, car was driven from the Mid West to Baltimore for shipment to Antwerp.

Although virtually rust free and in fine driving condition, it was body off restored (1992-93) maintaining totally rust free chassis, all body panels as well as the interior, this in view of planned concourse presentation. So fully original. It missed first place and best in show by 3 points out of 1000 at 1994 International Healey Meeting in the UK.
Even with only 32 K Miles on the clock, the engine was overhauled, mainly to convert it to lead free fuel, lighter flywheel , balanced out etc....(runs at 60 psi oil pressure and produces 150 HP ).
The car has been in regular and trouble free use over the last 23 years, covering another 42 K Miles, mostly club events. For peace of mind, electronic ignition (not visible) and high torque starter motor were installed, and high capacity radiator plus extra insulation took care of the typical Healey hot cabin temperature. Paint and chrome all in immaculate condition with only the slightest signs of usage.

If preferred, car can be supplied with wire wheels instead of current original UK made Minilites for an extra 500, 00 € supplement.

The car is exceptionally well documented, 23-year log book with distances and fuel consumption, all bills and hundreds of photographs of restoration and later use.
Original tool kit, tonneau cover and hood cover in their period bags, owner manual plus several rare period accessories.

A unique opportunity to acquire a top class example of what is still today, the most wanted, most comfortable and fastest of the standard Austin Healey models.
