1958 Austin Healey 100-6 Two Seater

Rare 2-seater. Red on black. Engine runs strong with recent tune-up. Solid body and frame. Newly sealed gas tank and float. New brake master and wheel cylinders. New clutch slave cylinder. Extra parts.

Electricals

Front and rear parking lights, brake lights, horn and windshield wipers are functional. The starter and generator are functioning fine. Speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure, oil temp and fuel gauges are functional. Headlights and turn signals are presently not functioning due to headlight switch which is included but not presently installed. Turn signal relay needs cleaning to get the turn signals to operate. A brand new 12 volt battery is installed.

Engine and Transmission

The engine is a correct 2.6 Liter straight six (number 29D/U/H1888) factory rated at 117HP. Recent engine related service includes the following: Lubed carb linkages, disassembled and cleaned carbs, ultrasonic cleaned needle valve assemblies, balanced carbs, R&R gas tank and replaced gas sending unit, replaced all soft fuel hoses, anchored solid fuel linesm cleaned glass fuel filter, cleaned distributor cap and replaced points. Additionally, all six spark plugs were replaced and compression test measurements were taken with measurements of 145psi to 155psi across all six cylinders.

The engine starts very easily and accelerates smoothly with good power. Oil pressure at startup is 40psi to 60psi.

The original 4 speed transmission shifts smoothly into all gears, but pops out of first gear unless shift lever is held in place. All other gears are functioning fine. There is also an oil leak coming from the rear section of the gearbox. Recent transmission related service includes the following: Replaced clutch slave cylinder and hose and bled system, topped up transmission oil and changed differential oil.
Suspension, Wheels, Tires and Brakes

The suspension is in fair condition with newly installed front sway bar. The steering alignment is good.

The original 15" solid steel wheels are currently installed and are in good condition. The original chrome hubcaps are in fair condition with front right hubcap showing the most wear.

All four 185/65R15 sized radial tires are older and hold air, but are ready for replacement.

The brakes are functioning well with new brake master cylinder just installed, rear hoses replaced and lower front and rear wheel cylinders rebuilt. Brake fluid was also recently flushed. The emergency brake is adjusted correctly and holds tight.





Extra Parts and Documentation

The following extra parts are included: Pair of original side curtains, extra pair of carburetors, extra bumper guard, windshield wipers, extra oil filter, original fuel pump, new headlight switch and miscellaneous other parts.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
