Finally got my dads 1962 Austin Healy mk2 out of storage. It has been in storage since 1981.He has not seen it since 1988. It is a 1962 tri carb, was originally white. 87,000 miles. Plan on doing a budget, based restoration, something we can drive everyday and not be afraid of getting it dirty.

Mine looked worse than that when I started, and it turned out great. Keep at it and keep us posted (with pictures).

Is that a hardtop? I'm instantly envious...
