1956 Austin Healey 100M Le Mans

From Seller:

Original factory 100M, in the LeMans registry and has a Heritage Certificate. All numbers match. There are very few of these cars remaining and on the road today. This car was built on March 22 in 1956. It first arrived into Florida in June of 1956. It then went to a new owner in the spring of 1969 where it was driven regularly in the spring summer and fall. It was services regularly. Prior to the restoration completed in the spring of 2009, the car was last driven in 1980 and then stored on blocks in a Milwaukee garage. It was then sold in the fall of 2002 and transported to Mesa, Arizona in the fall of 2002. In late 2007 it was sold and the restoration began by a Healey specialist in 2008. The car was a “roller” and did not run when the restoration began.

This 1956 Austin Healey "FACTORY" 100M received a ground up, nut and bolt restoration. It is a matching number and has a BHMIT document proving the Factory M Heritage is also included with the sale of the car and listed below. This rare car received a complete ground up restoration to the highest possible standards, which included complete mechanical, electrical, suspension, hydraulic and structural restoration and rebuild. The car was finished in the original Old English white over Black coves. In addition, the paint used is a high end German Urethane base coat clear product with perfect color match to original. The finish was then hand rubbed and polished to the highest standards. Furthermore, the interior is finished to the correct leather seating design in proper period style of Black seats with white piping. All photo documentation is available since the when the car was first started of this exceptional restoration. Only 125 meticulous miles have been placed on this car since the completed restoration. This is one of the most desirable of all of the Austin Healey models and super rare. Only 640 were made Factory 100Ms and much less exist today.
