2-SEAT FACTORY RIGHT HAND DRIVE 6 CYLINDER
Introduced in August 1956, the new 6 Cylinder 100/6 Austin Healey was initially only available in ‘BN4’ 2+2 seat configuration, while the 2 Seat ‘BN6’, was delayed until March 1958. The short production run, ending March 1959, totalled just 4,150 examples and due to their production delay, all BN6’s were fitted with the uprated 12 port cylinder head, twin HD6 1¾” SU carburettors and a higher compression engine.
This rare factory right hand drive BN6 is one of just 263 produced and is finished in the most desirable colour combination, of Healey Blue over Ivory White, with a complimentary white piped, dark blue interior trim featuring a wood rimmed Moto-Lita steering wheel. This Healey is equipped with full weather equipment, including a light grey vinyl roof with sliding perspex side curtains as well as a blue vinyl full sized tonneau.
Major mechanical and restoration works totalling $47K were completed in 2021-2022, including, but not limited to the installation of a new Dennis Welsh steering box, new rear shock absorbers, re-built front suspension and brakes, re-built trafficator, the addition of a thermo fan, a full set of new Dayton painted 48 spoke wire wheels, wearing new Michelin tyres, new splined hubs front & rear and rust repairs, as required.
Presenting the opportunity to jump into a rare, right hand drive, 2 seater, 6 cylinder Austin Healey, this BN6 is mechanically sorted, and structurally sound, ready for you to enjoy the experience of a classic period sports car
