Description:
1958 Austin Healey Roadster CHROME
AUSTIN HEALEY 1958 100/6 ROADSTER 4 SEAT ROADSTER WITH OVERDRIVE, AND LEMANS HOOD. CAR WAS PARTIALLY RESTORED IN EARLY 90'S, PAINT SHINES NICE NO FLAKING, BUT SHOULD BE BUFFED OUT BECAUSE THERE IS TINY PIECES OF DUST IN PAINT. BODY PANELS ARE SOLID, HAVE LUGGAGE RACK NEVER INSTALLLED. I FOUND A COUPLE OF BONDO SPOTS BUT NOTHING BUBBLING. IT'S HARD TO TAKE PICS OF UNDERCARRIAGE SINCE I HAVE NO JACK STANDS BUT FROM WHAT I SEE ALL FLOOR PANS AND OUTRIGGERS SHOULD BE REPLACED, CAR HAS THICK UNDERCOATING SO HARD TO SEE. I SEE SHEET METAL THROUGH SPOTS WHERE UNDERCOAT CAME OFF ON FLOORS. ALSO THE FRAME FROM THE BACK CROSS MEMBER TO ABOUT THE GAS PEDAL HAS A SLEEVE INSERTED INTO BOTH SIDES OF THE FRAME SECTIONS BECAUSE OF SPLIT IN ORIGINAL FRAME DOWN THE MIDDLE, KIND OF HARD TO EXPLAIN, LOOK AT PICTURES. DON'T HAVE ORIGINAL SHOCKS IN REAR, HAS AIR SHOCKS AND THEY WORK. ORIGINAL INSULATION IN TRUNK PAINTED RED. DRIVERS DOOR SAGS ABOUT 3/8" TO 1/2" SEE PICS, PASSENGER DOOR SEEMS OK CLOSES AS IT SHOULD. THERE IS A RUSTED BRACKET IN FRONT WHERE SWAY BAR ATTACHES. CRACKED WINDSHIELD YOU CAN SEE. I NEVER CHECKED THE OVERDRIVE OR THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, INTERIOR AND DASH AND GAUGES ARE REALLY NICE. HAS CONVERTIBLE FRAME FOR THE TOP BUT CAN'T SEE IN PICS, AND HAS A BRAND NEW CONVERTIBLE TOP THAT NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED. TONNEAU COVER IN NOT TO GOOD OF SHAPE, NEEDS STITCHING WORK. I HAVE EXTRA NEW & USED PARTS FOR THE TOP (SNAPS) AND THE WOOD RAIL IS KINDA OF WORN BUT STILL USABLE BUT MISSING HOLD DOWNS TO LOCK DOWN. TIRES ARE SOSO AND THE WIRE WHEELS SEEM FINE. HAVE 2 EXTRA WHEELS AND PARTS THAT COME WITH CAR. I HAVE DRIVEN THIS CAR AROUND THE BLOCK AND SEEM TO SHIFT FINE EXCEPT FOR A LITTLE SYNCHRO NOISE IN FIRST, I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THESE CARS, I BOUGHT IT OUT OF AN ESTATE A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND DROVE IT TWICE AND IT STARTED UP FINE WITH A NEW BATTERY. AS FAR AS I KNOW THE CAR HAS HAD 3 PREVIOUS OWNERS, 2 OF THEM WERE FROM SAME FAMILY UNTIL I GOT IT. ENGINE #29D RU VH7020 AND SOUNDS GREAT AND STARTS GREA, TRIM MATCHES THE ID PLATE, VIN BN4-LO/59874. HAS NEW EXHAUST AND SOUNDS GOOD. IF IT WASN'T FOR THE UNDERCARRIAGE IT WOULD BE A NICE CAR WITH WORK DONE. GAUGES WORK AND LIGHTS AND DIRECTIONALS WORK. STEERING WHEEL IS IN GOOD SHAPE. VERY MINOR PITTING ON SOME PIECES OF THE TRIMS RINGS BUT LOOK GOOD AS DO THE DIALS. THIS CAR I BOUGHT 2 YRS AGO AND I HAVE A CLEAR TITLE IN MY NAME. I KNOW I'M MISSING SOMETHING BUT YOU CAN MESSAGE ME IF INTERESTED. MUST HAVE AT LEAST 10 POSITIVE FEEDBACK OR I WILL CANCEL YOU BID. SO TO SUM IT UP YOU ARE BUYING A NICE AUSTIN HEALEY THAT NEEDS ALL FLOOR PANS REPLACED IN MY OPINION, BUT I'M NO AN EXPERT. CAR IS LOCATED IN NW. INDIANA. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK ME AND I'LL TRY TO ANSWER. NO RESERVE, THE CAR WILL SELL. I DON'T DO SHIPPING, IT'S UP TO YOU, MUST PAY $1000.00 DEPOSIT WITHIN 1DAY AND REMAINDER WHEN YOU PICK IT UP. PAYMENT MUST BE CASHIER CHECK OR WIRE TRANSFER OR CASH, AND MUST CLEAR BEFORE I RELEASE THE CAR.COMPLETE CAR HAS GREAT POTENTIAL WITH SOME CARE TO UNDERCARRIAGE. OUTSIDE LOOKS JUST LIKE PICTURES WOW WITH NO RESERVE. SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY.Vehicle Details:
