About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Very good detailed engine bay. Excellent paint and chrome. Excellent interior. Not overdone, but rather an excellent, fresh Healey Lane restoration of a genuine M, which included larger carbs, a hotter cam, higher compression and stiffer suspension. This car one of just 640 that were so equipped at the factory, making it significantly more desirable than the cars retrofitted with the Le Mans kit at the dealer or by the owner.

Market commentary

This car ticked all the right boxes for a Healey aficionado, and it was bid to an appropriate result that should leave both buyer and seller fully satisfied.
