Description
Lot #1136 - A full nut-and-bolt rotisserie restoration completed in 2019 by Healey Lane Restorations in Oregon. It’s powered by a 2912cc 6-cylinder engine and a 5-speed manual transmission. The complete drivetrain was rebuilt, along with a new highly polished alloy valve cover and stainless steel exhaust system. The exterior is Ice Green Metallic, a color that was used on some Austin-Healey's including NOJ 391, a special test car that raced at Le Mans. The interior is Biscuit leather and vinyl with Wilton wool carpet over a matching biscuit top, top cover, and Stayfast tonneau cover. A new walnut burl dash and wood steering wheel complete the beautiful interior. All gauges were rebuilt. All original fasteners, brackets, linkage, are plated in correct bright zinc. Many parts including most of suspension parts, brackets and top frame were powder-coated for durability. Any parts that needed to be painted used high-grade PPG paint and primer/sealer. All hydraulics are new including steel and rubber lines. All the electrical system is either new or rebuilt and includes a new wiring harness and alternator upgrade. The chrome has either been re-chromed or is new. The windshield and door glass are new. The suspension was taken off the car, disassembled and new parts were used in the assembly. All four shocks were rebuilt and new rear springs were installed. All rubber parts are new. There are five new 60-spoke chrome wheels with SS soles and five matching tires. An upgraded rack & pinion steering system was installed along with an electric fan. Driving lights were installed for enjoyable night driving. This Austin-Healey includes driver's handbook, wheel hammer, top and tonneau storage bags.
