This 1957 Austin-Healey 100-6 is a left-hand-drive four-seat BN4 roadster that was acquired by its current owner in 2006 and subsequently disassembled and refurbished. The exterior was refinished in blue, the seats were retrimmed with blue leather, and the 2.6-liter inline-six and four-speed manual transmission with overdrive were both rebuilt. Equipment includes a removable white hardtop, a blue soft top, side curtains, dual carburetors, 15″ wire wheels, driving lights, a stainless-steel exhaust system, and chrome bumpers and trim.
The car was disassembled, the rocker panels and the floors were replaced, and the body was refinished in blue with a clear coat in 2010. Equipment includes a removable white hardtop a blue soft top, along with removable side curtains, a tonneau cover, driving lights, and refinished chrome bumpers and trim. The left door was replaced during prior ownership and the removed door is included in the sale.
Replacement chrome-finished wire wheels with two-eared spinners are mounted with 15″ Vredestein Sprint Classic tires. A matching spare is mounted in the trunk.
The cabin features front and rear seats that were reupholstered in blue leather, along with a matching dashboard and door panels. Jute thermal insulation and Dynamat sound-dampening material were installed under the blue carpets, and the heater was removed and additional outside-air ducts were installed. Custom seatbelt mount points were welded in place, and a power point was also added.
The wood-rimmed steering wheel sits ahead of a 120-mph speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer, and ancillary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 45k miles.
The 2.6-liter inline-six and four-speed manual transmission were reportedly rebuilt by Randy Forbes in 2012. The engine is equipped with dual SU carburetors, a ‘Texas Kooler’ fan, a red-finished fan shroud, heat-wrapped downpipes, and a stainless-steel exhaust system. The carburetors were adjusted and replacement ignition components were installed in preparation for the sale. The seller notes some oil seepage.
