Austin-Healey was one of the British brands that started the imported sports car boom in the USA. The Austin-Healey MKII was initially offered as an occasional 4-seat roadster called the BT7 or the 2-seat variant known as the BN7. Both versions used flat front windscreens and detachable side curtains in the style of a roadster. The rear panel of the BT7 was cut out much deeper towards the trunk to make room for the small jumper seats in the rear. Later cars came equipped with a center-located top-loader transmission. This is such an example. Like the earlier 3000s, the MKII featured BMC’s C-Series six-cylinder engine with a 4-speed + overdrive gearbox. It used a separate ladder-type frame and a steel body, and the BT7 vastly outsold the BN7.
This BT7 has been completely, professionally and correctly restored to a very high Concours d’Elegance level, using all the proper parts, and is extensively documented. it achieved silver level certification under the policies, regulations and standards of the Austin Healey Concours Registry 2014 Concours d'Elegance. The award certificate is included and in the photo gallery. An album with 242 restoration photos and a British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate are included.
It is finished in old English white with a new red interior, a new black top, side curtains, tonneau cover and more. It rides on properly painted knockoff wire wheels, shod with Vredestein Classic tires. It is concours-ready, would show proudly anywhere, and is also eminently drivable.
It comes with the correct tool kit and spare wheel & tire. Additional and original parts, e.g., the period correct Lucas headlights are included.
