BN1 Offered in Probate Auction...

Yikes, that's a boatload of lots! I used to call on places in Bellefontaine, Ohio when I worked for a Clever-Brooks Boiler Svc company out of Toledo; ol' Jack must've owned a third (1/3) of all the cars in Logan County!

I could pass on the 100, but that Hudson Hornet appeals to me__I can remember my dad bringing them (and 50s Packards) home from the used car lot he worked at on Detroit's Eastside.
 
About a 45 minute drive for me from Columbus..........but not for an Opel-Healey.............

I just worked on a Triumph Stag with a Toyota 22R 2.2liter 4 banger installed. The car already had the engine so we installed headers, a bigger carb, and fixed the throttle linkage. It sounds awesome and goes pretty well. Just keep the hood closed!

I think we are getting about 150hp and decent torque from the Toyomotor. That is close to the rating for the original V8.
 
Fingers crossed that someone loves the hopefully not too rusty 100! My car was converted 25 years ago to a Chevy 400 V8 and the lack of originality made the car fit my budget. The condition of the Yankee bits made the car start right up after a 20 year slumber. I've been having a blast driving it around all summer, cleaning mousey areas and making to-do lists... and yes my fender spears are pointed in the wrong direction :smile:
 
Wow, my not rusty (but not original) BN2 was only a bit more than that! I hope that it gets back on the road someday.
