SUMMARY

Beautifully restored and classically presented BT7 2+2 that has covered less than 60,000 miles.

DESCRIPTION

  • Unveiled in March 1961, the Mk II version with restyled grille and bonnet intake was the last 3,000 available as a two-seater, the 2+2 (BT7) option having been for years the more popular. Engine improvements in the form of a revised camshaft and triple SU carburettors liberated an extra 8bhp but these proved difficult to tune
  • In January 1962, the twin-carburettor Mk IIA appeared, a 2+2-only model boasting long overdue refinements such as wind-up windows, swivelling quarter-lights and a fixed foldaway top.
  • This super example is classically finished in Ice Blue over Old English White with a dark blue soft top, navy blue leather, royal blue carpets, a chrome luggage rack and chrome wires
  • Powered by a 124bhp, 2,912cc, C-Series six-cylinder mated to a 4-speed box with overdrive
  • Purchased by our vendor in 2019, the car had been subject to a fully documented and photographed, nut and bolt restoration between 2014-16
  • Supplied with an extensive history file, Austin-Healey handbook, its British Heritage Certificate and both sets of keys
  • Big Healeys remain a sought-after classic and may turn out to be a sound investment, but are undoubtedly a source of great pleasure for their fortunate owners
