Back in the 50s, if you wanted to experience open-top motoring in a British car, you would have to get behind the wheel of an MG; the tried and tested recipe by the British manufacturer had succeeded before the war and after it as well. There was, however, a new entrant into the open top market and was a part of the "Big Healeys" thanks to the size and performance they had to offer. The car present today is one of the big boys of the 50s and looks like this 1957 Austin Healey 100-6BN4 Convertible.
Automotive art is greatly debated, but it's fair to say this 1957 Austin Healey 100-6BN4 Convertible with its blue exterior belongs on the floor of any automotive museum. This being a big Healey meant more aggressive styling; this factor is showcased with the car's hood scoop and sporty bodyline. The exterior of this British classic is in great shape, with the car sporting all its exterior components. With everything prim and proper, this classic sits on a set of wire wheels that are period correct and help bring out that factory styling well; the wheels are wrapped with Hendrix tires, as reported by the current owner. Included in the sale are a soft blue top and a hard top. The matching blue interior on this 1957 Austin Healey 100-6BN4 Convertible is designed to provide you with the ultimate driving experience; the blue leather seats sport white stitching and blend in well with the wood steering wheel and factory interior components.
While the norm was a four-cylinder B Series engine purring away, Austin was set to change things and create history. Under the hood of their all-new Austin Healey, 100-6 would be a performance-oriented six-cylinder motor directly adapted from the Austin Westminister with some tweaks to bring out more power. Ensuring performance that can surprise to this day and raw engine tones is a 2.6-liter inline six motor underneath the hood of this 1957 Austin Healey 100-6BN4 Convertible. While it is a reliable powertrain, the current owner reports that the engine has been rebuilt and features some freshening up to ensure this British classic runs smoothly; reported is a recent oil change, new alternator, and radiator. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission with electronic overdrive.
