Description
PREVIOUSLY SOLD BY US IN 2005 AND AGAIN IN 2011 TO THE CURRENT OWNER, THIS VERY SMART EXAMPLE IS ACCOMPANIED BY A LARGE HISTORY FILE ATTESTING TO SUBSTANTIAL INVESTMENT OVER THE YEARS INCLUDING EARLIER RESTORATION WORK AND REPAINT TOGETHER WITH REBUILDING OF THE ENGINE AND GEARBOX. MORE RECENTLY (2022) A FULL OVERHAUL OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS CARRIED OUT.
SHOWING A CREDIBLE MILEAGE OF 65000 IN 1985, 73, 300 IN 1989, 77, 000 IN 2011 AND JUST OVER 80, 000 TODAY, THIS VERY STRAIGHT AND SOUND HEALEY PRESENTS WELL WITH LITTLE OR NO DETERIORATION TO THE BODYWORK SINCE THE EARLIER RESTORATION. ON THE ROAD SHE PULLS STRONGLY THROUGH THE GEARS AND HOLDS A HEALTHY OIL PRESSURE. OVERDRIVE DROPS IN PROMPTLY AND OPERATES ON 3RD AND 4TH GEARS.
THE CONTRASTING GREY LEATHER INTERIOR IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION AND THE HOOD HAS BEEN REPLACED IN THE PAST. THERE ARE ALSO BOTH HOOD BAG AND TONNEAU COVER IN THE BOOT. SENSIBLE UPGRADES TO IMPROVE RELIABILITY INCLUDE ELECTRONIC IGNITION AND FUEL PUMP.
THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE A VERY SOUND AND WELL MAINTAINED HEALEY AT A VERY REALISTIC PRICE WHICH SHOULD PROVIDE ENJOYABLE AND RELIABLE MOTORING WITHOUT THE REQUIREMENT FOR SUBSTANTIAL FURTHER INVESTMENT IN THE FORSEEABLE FUTURE!
