Description
The “Big Healey’s” have long been viewed as the ultimate British sports cars of the 1960s. Development of the line started with the 1952 Healey 100 launched at the London Motor Show. The evocative lines and superb handling of the Healey made it a sleek and successful rally car all around the world. With its 6-cylinder engine giving plenty of torque, the cars are more than quick enough to keep up with modern-day traffic.
This stunning example finished in Healey blue was supplied new in 1965 and is a full matching numbers car with Heritage certificate.
A thorough restoration was completed around 2017 to a very high standard.
She has been owned by a fastidious enthusiast post-restoration for the past 6 years and presents superbly today with a quality rarely found in some inferior restorations.
The result is a thoroughly prepared and sorted Healey ready to be used for any tour or style of the journey and she has indeed toured Europe on many occasions.
On the road, these early Healey’s are great fun especially considering this one is nearly 60 years old and this one is hard to beat with a great colour combination.
She drives beautifully and the phase two cars were the last 3000s in production and some say the beat of all the Big Healeys with a great torquey engine and long-legged overdrive gearbox meaning effortless high-speed cruising.
Supplied fully inspected, serviced with a 12-month warranty.
