For Sale – 1954 Austin Healey 100/4 BN1 Race Car – Right Hand Drive This car sustained extensive damage to the front left corner while racing at Road America. The frame rails suffered significant damage ahead of the firewall. Replacement frame components are available from Jule, Kilmartin, and Denis Welch to name a few. I am certain there are other suppliers also. This car could be repaired using replacement frame components and some body work. The left front wing is pretty badly damaged. The history on the car is that it started life as a street left hand drive US spec car. The car was then converted to right-hand drive and brought up to racing specs by Denis Welch Motorsport to be raced in Europe in the late 1990’s/early 2000’s. Raced at such tracks as Spa & LeMans. Has FIA papers, but no title. We then bought it in 2007 to vintage race in the States, as we wanted a right-hand drive Austin Healey racecar. Raced in the US at Lime Rock, VIR, Road America, Summit Point + NJMP. Car can roll. Buyer must make all arrangements for pick up. Car is currently sitting in our garage in Wayne, PA. Payment must be in the form of a certified check within 7 days after end of auction.
