1956 AUSTIN HEALEY BN2
LMCT 7819
SN:3732
EXTREMELY DESIRABLE
Following the sensational launch of the Austin Healey 100, the BN2 arrived with a Few Upgrades to the Original Design; a Stronger Hypoid Gear 5-Stud Rear Axle, the eagerly awaited Four Speed Gearbox with Overdrive and Wider Brake Drums.
The BN2 model is Much Sought After, as only 4604 were built compared to just over 10,000 BN1’s, with this one presenting Exceptionally Well. This Restored BN2 is finished in the Very Popular and Striking ‘Healey Blue’ with complementary Dark Blue Interior Trim. The Seats are Dark Blue and highlighted with Traditional Period White Piping. For your Comfort there is also a Smiths Heater fitted, ideal for those chilly Early Morning Escapes. The Healey sits nicely, on 15” Painted 60 Spoke Wire Wheels adding to that Classic Style. The Healey is mechanically standard apart from the Spin-On Oil Filter Conversion which has been added for ease of servicing.
The Healey Drives Well with the Lusty Long Stroke Engine providing Torque Filled Flexibility. The Engine and 4 speed Gearbox with Overdrive combine to provide a power unit which delivers Fantastic Driving, whether it be an Exhilarating Drive through the Hills or Cruising the Open Road. The Steering is Light, aided by the Original Size Steering Wheel and Original Size Wheels and Tyres. Braking is Progressive and Predictable as is the Roadholding, allowing you to confidently enjoy this nicely restored Austin Healey.
Come in for a Test Drive and On-Hoist Inspection of this Highly Desirable Classic Austin Healey BN2.
