Description for Austin Healey Other 1958
1958 AUSTIN HEALEY 100-6 BN-4 ROADSTER. OLDE ENGLISH WHITE WITH RED TRIM, LACK TOP. 48-SPOKE WIRE WHEELS. 4-SPEED OVERDRIVE GEARBOX. HEATER. FIXED STEERING WHEEL. VERY DECENT CAR FOR RESTORATION.Offered for sale from KURT TANNER MOTORCARS is this decent 100-6 Roadster. This car was recently purchased from a body shop in Ohio where it sat for years awaiting refurbishment, ith some work done. It is a largely complete car. The correct 4-speed OD sideshift gearbox will be arriving soon and will be installed in the car along with the engine for shipping purposes.
The chassis frame on this car is solid for a Healey of this period. The mainrails, utriggers, ain floors all appear super solid and original with only some surface rust. There is some rust-through on the LH inner and outer rockers, ome on the trunk floor, nd a repair patch is needed on the bottom of the LH front fender. The car was undercoated at one point which is now starting to flake off in various places.The front shroud appears in good shape and is currently in bare aluminum to reveal it's condition. There are a few bumps from underneath that created a few tears, ut are easily repairable. The grill fits well and the headlamp areas look good. The hood fits well with good gapping. The rear shroud has sustained some damage at one point in the middle and along the RH side, ut could be repaired by an aluminum specialist. The trunk lid looks good. The rest of the panels are in average condition and have had some previous work performed on them, hich may help going forward.The engine for the car is currently stuck from sitting, s the correct 100-6 unit with the desirable full port head, nd would most likely need rebuilding. It is complete including generator, arburetor set, starter, ngine mounts, adiator, tc. Eveyything that is pictured goes with the car PLUS a sideshift OD gearbox which is not yet pictured.
Known missing items are the front bumper brackets and the rear back seat wooden squab (both available). The top frame is there along with the front header wood, atches, nd finisher. I will include a restorable set of original aluminum sidecurtains with brackets (pictured). There is an important box of all the chrome trinkets, ights, nterior knick-knacks, oor handles, tc.Overall, fairly complete and solid Austin Healey 100-6, -seater Roadster for restoration in a very attractive original color scheme. This car has spent a large portion of it's life in a bodyshop waiting to be restored, and is very good value with good upside potential. $15,750.
