    Found in a carport, it hadn't run since 1968. (Two wires in the distributor that should have had an insulator between them didn't, remedied, and it started right up)

    Primrose yellow with a black hardtop. Softtop is missing.

    Still wearing most of its patina, the Healey is a driver through and through. The boot was a treasure trove of magazines, and SCCA documents including some dash plaques from what looks like a light competition history (TSD rallies). the headlights were replaced with Marchals, and the front bumper has a pair of Marchal auxiliary driving lights.

    Dad and I are the second owners and have been since 2007.

    As found and current pictures are attached.

    Very nice and glad to see you are keeping it as is and not creating another over restored example.
