I purchased the car a few yrs ago and have since disassembled to the basic chassis assembly. It was imported into Canada from Texas. This car has been sold on EBAY before but to make a long story short.. It was discovered after last sale that a previous owner was wanting to claim the car as his from a civil suit. Well 1.5 yrs later and a lot of emails and paperwork the car is now clear. The past buyer has now also backed out so here it is once again... The last auction brought a sale of $15000 USD and these cars are still going up in value year by year! BUY IT NOW $16500 or see if it hits reserve which is lower. Don't worry about bidding if you want the car! Car is worth the BUY IT NOW priceOkay for what is wrong. Missing the following items : Side screens / Grill bars / glass for windshield / fuel tank / needs an oil pan { there is one on the car but it is damaged } / exhaust / misc nuts bolts and items required to complete assy { Re: Hardware } and common parts for a usual restoration. Car overall is not bad for the typical Healey problems. We have stripped the car down so everything is in boxes or loose. The rockers have been removed and need to be repaired and welded back in with the new AUTOFARM supplied sheetmetal. Boot floor had a bit of corrosion so I also purchased a new floor from AUTOFARM as well { included } Original boot is in not too bad of shape and still in car. Main floors are okay { minor surface rust } main chassis rails are excellent and other structure is good Winged sheetmetal section ahead of door will require a flat section to be put in while doing the rocker sections again quite typical for Healey restorations Shrouds overall are descent / flanges descent / lwr front has typical dings / abrasion for a restoration. Shrouds have been stripped clean inside / out and overall really nice shapeDoors are good even the bottoms are excellent!! paint is still on but I do not suspect any filler is in the doors anywhereFenders: 4 front fenders included - 2 excellent condition other 2 have lwr corrosion. 2 rear fenders descent but front lower legs will need attention. 1 new patch panel includedHood is the lemans style but in steel not aluminum. It is correct in looks to the lemans style and louvers are correct as well as position and number. not sure if this is an original hood or louvered afterwards but it is in excellent conditionTrunk lid is in descent shape little rust on one flange- easily repairedSteering / suspension / rear axle etc is removed from car.Whats goodRebuilt engine / rebuilt transmission / Windshield frame good / bumpers { 1 new rear bumper from A head for Healeys / Lots of chrome pieces plus extras / New dark blue carpet kit in box / $323.91 spent on sheetmetal from AUTOFARM in Monkton Ont.

I have several pics of the car during disassembly that I can include 1st couple pics show car in state as purchased but the pics after show car as it is now. Car has been kept indoors all this time in disassembled state. Car was imported into Canada and never was put into my name. It comes with all paperwork required to be re imported into either USA or sold in Canada.I have importation paperwork / legal paperwork / Alabama tag { this was used on vehicles prior to having been built in 1974 } so no title ever issued for this car. So re-importing would be very easily done. All that would be required either sold in CANADA or USA is to have this tag registration AND EBAY bill of sale and the legal documentation I have with the car now...Email with all questions you may have.
