https://youtu.be/l8xjtnTZtwE ) -History and Overview - For sale is
a lovely 1959 Austin Healey 100-6 BN4 that finished in Austin
Healey Blue over Old English white with Blue leather interior. This
vehicle came out of Rancho Cordova, CA. It has been a one owner car
for the last 51 years. The previous owner purchased the vehicle in
April of 1972 then gave it a frame off restoration that was
completed in 1998 with photo documentation. From 1972 to present
day it has never sat a day outside according to notes written by
the previous owner. He became ill and passed away about two years
ago, and his family donated the car to charity. It went to a local
charity auction and that is how we accrued it. By this time the car
had not been fired up for the last 10 or so years. So it required a
lot of maintenance. We spent another $10K in the last year getting
it back on the road as I will explain shortly. This vehicle came
factory with 48 Spoke wire wheels, overdrive, adjustable steering
column, heater, laminated windscreens and road speed Tyres. It also
comes with its British Motors Heritage trust, original tool kit,
jacks, books, owners manuals, all recent service records as well as
some previous records, new soft top and Tonneau cover. Clean CA
title. Watch the video for details. Current condition - This Austin
Healey is in excellent condition. I would give the paint 8 out of
10 as it has its minor imperfections here and there. Watch the
video to see every inch of the car yourself. The interior looks
new, no known flaws or signs of wear. Very nice straight body,
watch the video and see. Mechanically it runs and drives great. It
has the inline six engine paired with a 4-Speed manual transmission
with overdrive. Both the engine and transmission were rebuilt in
1998, and I don't believe they put very many miles on it since.
When it was rebuilt they put hardened valve seats. There has been
quite a bit of recent work done to the car to get it back on the
road after it sat for many years. New distributor, clutch master
cylinder, slave cylinder, and brake master cylinder. The whole
front suspension was done, the carburetor was taken to a specialist
and got fully rebuilt as well as much more miscellaneous things.
All the receipts are available in the video. All parts from Moss
motors. The motor is very healthy, sounds great and has plenty of
power. Transmission shifts smoothly through all gears. There is
always more TLC that could be done, it has a small oil leak like
most british cars. Brakes and brake lines I believe are all done.
Like new michelin tires. Clutch and brakes feel good. Suspension
feels tight. DO NOT TAKE MY WORK FOR ANYTHING, WATCH THE VIDEO IN
