Ira,
You made a point of noting the blue head. That is not a particularly
original car. I'd agree it hasn't been far apart, but a lot of things have
been messed with. That engine is not at all as original, nor is the fairly
fresh blue cylinder head paint. A lot of plumbing has been messed with,
wiring harness patched in a number of places, regulator replaced with
something else, alternator, choke bracket upside down, engine bay's a mess.
Grille assembly has been pulled out and replaced wrong.
Interior is interesting. Somebody has pulled off all the console vinyl and
padding. The seats look good and they're original. The rear fold down panel
has been stuck in place upside down. Carpets all gone. Poor back window in
the top is folded and crunched.
This could be a relatively easy restoration but, "the best unrestored Healey
in California"????? I think not.
Rich
