1967 Austin Healy replica
Very powerful car
Newly rebuilt and titled car
This car was built in 1991 as a factory built car, then in 2017 it was rebuilt/ restored utilizing a crate 350 350 hp , a 700r trans and a Detroit locker rear end, it was finished with new parts. The speedo shows 23000 miles that were on the car when it was mild mannered, but now the car has 850 break in miles.
I got the car and haven’t had time to do anything with it. I put about 40 miles on it then winter set in.
This car was rebuilt for the guy by a rod shop in southern Maryland, then the he got sick and it was never totally shaken out. It needs to be driven and a few things adjusted as miles are put on it.
This Healy runs and drives and is extremely powerful , brakes well, (4 wheel disc wildwood i believe) and is comfortable for. 6-2 person. It spins the tires in 2nd and third. It doesn't like being driven slow!
This car was built with keeping up with a cobra. It is fast ! And wants to be driven fast. It handles well.
It has a Detroit locker rear end (which is a full posi rear end , please read about them they clunk a little) , with a 700R transmission with a shift kit and a 2800 rpm torque converter..
Nice interior, needs carpet in my opinion, ( it looks dirty but its the blue color with black in it)
Nice top
2 covers, tonneau with zipper is blue and top boot which is black) both are in decent shape but the snaps have been repaired if you look close.
Real roll up windows.
Trunk locks and is finished
Mustang 2 type front end
Titled as a 1991
Speedo had 23000 miles on it when installed, i left mileage on it as it is exempt.
It has a thick fiberglass body and has a blue gel coat, so if u scratch it it buffs out.
I have both build manuals which are extremely rare (450.00)
Cons
Valve covers leak a little from setting, not bad just wanted to mention
Car needs front tire balance and alignment( not bad but a little shake at 65)
350, 350hp crate motor . .Built. . sounds good 700R with shift kit and 2800 torque converter
Detroit locker rear end (fully posi)
4 wheel disc brakes (wildwood)
Very nice gel coat
New exhaust Alternator Water pump
Newer Tires Newer rims
Fan, Ect..
I think they only thing it needs is to be driven , and perhaps the carpet changed (i dont like the blue it always looks dirty, carpet is only $500.00)
