I spotted this silver beauty cruising the side-streets in B H. I fixated on the intricacies of the grill. Sorry.

  • Sorry- responded from wrong login! If you want to see the video of the Healey racer, it's at this channel (from Philadelphia Auto Show 2012), part of the Simeone Collection!

  • Great to see one of these on the road. I do a website showcasing classic British cars, and I just did a video of one of these (AH 100-4) from the Philadelphia Auto Show 2012. Early racer that set speed records at Bonneville in 1953. If you go to my channel, you can see it.

  • As you guys have already noted, this is not a 3000, but a lovely example of the 100-4, or "Healey Hundred" as they were called. I owned 4 of these in rapid succession when I was a teen in high school. Wonderful/horrible cars. Windscreed laid down bkwrds for speed. Bought my first one for $200. Today they start at $35,000 here in the States. Positive ground, funky wiring, tricky gearboxes, no cure for cockpit heat, but I'd own another in a moment if I hadn't discovered the Datsun Z.

  • They built the 100-4 from 1953 (I had one) to 1956. Two series in that time frame; a BN1 and BN2. The biggest difference was the gear box. Went from a 3-speed to a 4-speed.

    Beautiful car in my favorite color, Healey Blue!

  • This is not a 3000 but a 100/4 from 1954 or 1955.

    One of the first AH.
