Looking for that nice Healey but pockets just aren’t deep enough. This may be what you’re looking for. Classic British styling with pure American muscle. This is a replica kit manufactured by Classic Roadsters of Fargo, ND. The car was assembled in 1987 by a retired man who died shortly after and the car was put in dry storage for 20+ years. I bought it from the second owner 4 years ago and have done extensive work to bring it back to life. Note: this history is second hand so I cannot verify it. The car has a crate Ford 302 engine, 4 speed transmission. It has a tubular frame with chassis components taken from a 1978 Mustang II. The steering is power assisted Rack & pinion. The following is a partial list of work done since I purchased the car. • Complete rewiring using Painless harness with new fuse block. • Radiator removed and cleaned. • New (reman) steering rack installed. • New brake master cylinder w/ boost unit • New brake pads & shoes • Headers ceramic coated. • New ignition module and solenoid. • New heater core (damaged A/C was removed). • Handmaid walnut instrument panel with new switches and added gauges. • New RetroSound Radio with Aux input. • New Flaming River steering column with Grant wheel. • Interior has been completely reupholstered. • New battery and spare tire. • New (reman) clutch assembly • New Holly 4 barrel carb It has a black convertible top that has some cosmetic issues but does not leak. I strongly encourage an independent inspection and I will deduct the cost (up to $150) from the price. Work progress and "before" pictures are available upon request. The car was inspected and re-titled as a 2010 because the Indiana title would not transfer into the Florida system. VIN # FLA63702 Cash or Cashier’s check. The car will be released after payment but the title will not be released until after check clears. If you pick up the car locally and are not satisfied After a test drive, I will refund your deposit.

I've had it for 4 years and have only put on about 3000 miles. Recently the odometer has become erratic at different speeds, sometimes flipping the mile digit when the 10th mile digit turns or sometimes not turning.
