Possibly the Best 100M on the Planet This spectacular car is
entered into the Worldwide LeMans Registry categorized as as FC Top
Gold Level which confirms it, without question, as a factory built
100M. This show-quality 100M has been trailered to shows and events
and is highly attractive in its original livery of Olde English
White with a blue interior and convertible top. The seats are
smartly piped in white to match the exterior. Of course, all
numbers match, all body panels and trim pieces are correct and
original. The car was restored by Healey restoration guru Martin
Hveem in Reading, California in 2012. Subsequent to the restoration
the car won its class at the Hillsborough Concours and it received
Gold Level 100M Certification at the national Healey concours. Mr.
Hveems restoration is meticulously documented with copious photos
of the entire process from start to finish. The car comes with its
original owners manual, original tools, soft top, as well as
tonneau and side curtains. It is in perfect running condition and
is ready today to take home more trophies, or gobble up country
roads in style. This genuine, factory-built Le Mans model is
authenticated by the 100M Registry and its Gold Certification by
the Austin-Healey Concours Registry. Built on September 9, 1955, it
is a matching numbers, original left-hand drive US-delivery example
that received a body-off restoration that was performed to very
high standards of correctness and quality over a two-year period by
noted restorer Martin Hveem of Red Bluff, California. Prior to
restoration, the car was remarkably complete and retained all of
the original, factory-installed components that formed the 100M Le
Mans package. During the exacting process, Mr. Hveem utilized
original fasteners for heightened authenticity, and both the
Healeys engine and gearbox were completely rebuilt in-house as
well. The Healey starts and runs well and features all the proper
'M' engine upgrades and exterior features characteristic of the
100M. One of just 640 100M Le Mans cars were produced. There simply
isnt a better 100M on the planet. A matching numbers, factory-built
