How about adding a classic racer to your garage? A roadster as exquisite as an Austin Healey should grace anyone’s collection of classic cars. Days when an automobile even seemed a luxury to most, Austin and Healey met up to form the coveted car company named after them entering in to a 20 years contract which witnessed a whole new generation of cars that raced past Europe and the USA. For the uninitiated, there were 4 series in the AH lineup starting with the 100s which evolved in to 3000s and after an impressive 20 years, the production ceased with the Sprite line of models.
By then, over 200,000 cars were made and sold successfully. They produced great power for those times, as race ran in their DNA and also they were well acquainted for the day-to-day roads. The last of the sprite models produced an impressive 90 PS and clocked a 0-60 in 17 seconds which is pretty powerful in those days All of these models were born as production racers, unlike the formula racing cars which are not production models, and went on to win on rallies year after year. Now classified as vintage models, these cars are in huge demand owing to its legacy and are sought by people around the globe.
These cars are also the most preferred models during their times as they allowed extensive modification both for aesthetics and performance. There were even cottage industries that would adopt these models and turn them in to a beast or a beauty depending upon the customer’s choice. To suit current road rules, these cars have adapted to today’s basic safety features with a touch of interior decorations and are now available in select classic car outlets and auctions around the world.
An as-is condition car can be bought for $50,000 while a fully restored car in running condition can cost upwards of $100,000. It definitely is a collector’s car and the proud owners stand proof to this fact. More good news is the AH is expected to return to main stream car making anytime soon. All AH enthusiasts, rejoice!
