Ivory WhiteExperience the elegance of a classic with this exceptional 1959 Austin-Healey 100-6 BN6 Two-Seater Roadster. Finished in prestigious Ivory White with a refined Black Leather interior highlighted by striking red piping and a Black convertible top, this vehicle embodies the timeless beauty of vintage British engineering.
Under the hood lies the vehicle’s original, numbers-matching 2639cc Inline 6-cylinder engine, seamlessly paired with an upgraded 5-speed manual transmission. This Austin-Healey has undergone a no-expense-spared rotisserie restoration, bringing it to rally-capable standards, ensuring it performs as marvelously as it looks.
The car’s integrity has been preserved and enhanced by meticulous restoration efforts. Starting in 2016, the vehicle was disassembled, inspected, and reassembled with new wiring harnesses, a completely refreshed leather interior, and professionally treated for any minor imperfections. Notable upgrades include new suspension components like Denis Welsh front coil springs and a sway bar with poly-bushings, as well as a Dick Welsh rear differential for superior highway cruising, particularly when combined with Smitty’s 5-speed Toyota Supra transmission conversion.
Enhancements continue with Girling disc brakes for improved stopping power, and new 72-spoke chrome wire wheels fitted with Vredestein Sprint Classic radial tires, ensuring optimum performance and confidence at high speeds.
The engine has been meticulously rebuilt with all new internals and features, including a Denis Welsh aluminum head for weight reduction, electronic ignition system, and a beautifully polished stainless steel exhaust. A dual electric fuel pump system provides reliability during long drives or rallies. The dashboard is professionally restored, with custom engraved plaques for easy control function readability, complemented by a Waltham clock and Omega stopwatch for precise rally timing.
This Austin-Healey showcases immaculate paint and chrome, with the body displaying some of the tightest panel fitments seen on an early Healey. The engine compartment reflects the same attention to detail, maintaining a proper factory presentation.
The car has a clean title and with only 3,874 miles since the restoration, it has been thoroughly vetted under various weather conditions, ensuring it drives impeccably. The original drivetrain components are retained, coupling modern enhancements with its historically accurate charm.
This car is a magnificent example of careful, long-term stewardship, offering the exciting opportunity to own a piece of automotive history nurtured by passionate caretakers.
