1957 Austin Healey 100-6 Project car

This is one of those once in a lifetime garage finds that you hear or read about and wonder why you never stumble on to an opportunity like that. It is an early big Healey that has not yet been restored but is not a total basket case pulled out of a field. Most collectible British cars generally fall into three categories; 1) restored correctly and cost a fortune, 2) restored cheaply covering up a rusty car, or 3) a complete basket case which you should run from as fast as you can. This is a complete car, unrestored and NOT FULL OF TERMINAL RUST. It was painted once in the early 60’s. It appears the color was changed from black with red coves to the current orange/white color combination (Why would someone change to those colors??).
