I'm not familiar with this car, just happened onto the ad: > For Sale: 1953 Austin-Healey 100-4 in Bellingham, Washington <
It's visually different than any Healey I've ever seen and the text is remarkable. If all is true, this is a significant BN1 apparently constructed in late '90s.
Partial quotes from the text:
"The current iteration incorporates the frontal aspect that was Mr. Healey's first choice for production and it is replicated here for the first time. During the early design stage we were fortunate in receiving gracious input from Gerry Coker, the original designer, to ensure we did it correctly. Images of some of Mr. Coker’s emails are included below."
"The primary design goal was to recreate the frontal aspect that was changed during the prototype build at Tickford. This car shows the design that Donald Healey originally approved for production and demonstrates what he intended the BN-1 to look like. It is the only example ever built to those specifications."
Can anyone confirm the info in this ad? I like the partially inclined windshield and low profile hard top.
Interested in hearing opinions and/or information anyone has.
Dave
