The rest of the story:
A friend acquired this car about 5 years ago. I saw it and was green with envy. I had just given up on a 120 DHC restoration that was missing a bunch of stuff etc, This was an absolute complete no rust car out of 25 years storage. Recently, he saw a Healey 100 that I had just restored and said that if he ever decided to sell the 120, he would like me to have it. Not long after, he contacted me and said for health reasons, he had decided to sell the 120. We came up with a deal good for both of us and Bobs your Uncle
Its an early car (Aug 1950). Later engine but I have been offered an early engine. No, and I mean no, rust. Complete except top irons but has that neat (Carson?) top. Should be a (relatively) easy restoration.
