From "Chatter" December,1996:
Healeys on the Way Up
Reporting in AutoWeek (November 11, 1996) Keith Martin cites some "third quarter movers" in price. Included are fully restored 1953-1956 Austin-Healey 100s and 1959-1967 3000 roadsters. According to Martin, they've gone from $25,000 to $35,000 in a year. He also states that users, not speculators, are driving the collectible car market.
Noted were two Healeys that sold at the Cole sale last August. A 1956 100M, restored to a high standard, brought $34,450 - a big jump from the mid-$20,000 range in which such cars have been trading. The other, a '67 BJ8 which had been restored to a "concours level" some years ago, but was starting the inevitable downward slide through use, sold for $24,380.
