Good morning Fellow Healey enthusiasts. Thanks for a great auction week and the continued interest in this fine example. It’s quite possibly one of the very best Bugeyes on the market today. After a nut amd bolt rotisserie restoration it was purchased by a collector in California. The bill of sale states it was obtained for $36,500. I’ve dropped the reserve significantly, so hopefully it finds a new home today that will cherish it.

Good afternoon fellow British Car enthusiasts. Thank you for the initial bid. I’ve been a collector for many years, and have never come across a restoration at this level. Every nut, bolt, undercarriage, engine, transmission.Clutch, electrical, wheels, suspension, interior, and exhaust shows better than new. It was restored in England, and I am the first to title and register it in the states. I’ll be checking in periodically to answer all questions. Best of luck for all of those interested in purchasing.
