That is really something that annoys me.

This car in Australia came up on eBay in January 2013 for $78,000. The
seller listed it as a 100M and if it was $78K it would have been cheap. =
I
wrote to the seller asking for certification that it was. Naturally I =
didn=92t
receive any because it=92s not a 100M. Yes it=92s a BN2 that=92s fitted =
with a few
Le Mans mods and by doing that he gained admission into the 100M =93Le =
Mans=94
Registry. In his ad he also has not included any photos of the engine.

=20

I should say that gaining entry to the Registry is relatively simple. =
Any
100 that=92s fitted with 1 =BE SUs and leather bonnet strap can gain =
entry and
it doesn=92t matter if it was so fitted in 1955 or 2014.

=20

The going price of a fair dinkum 100M is close to $200K and that car is =
not
in that league. Anyone who wishes to have a looksee can do so at:

Looks like a nice car. Pity it has been stolen I hope he gets it back

But good luck with the insurance claim if not

There is  currently a very tidy looking red over black 1955 BN2 =
(originally
left hand drive) now right hand drive converted by=20

The Healey  Factory ( so it should be fairly good ) to !00M =

available for sale here in Melbourne

for A$66,000.00 which equates to around US $52,800.00 on the current
exchange rate.

Any one want a bargain 100M.?  My mate decided not to buy it as it was =
too
nice  a car as he is looking for reasonably tidy car

I have the car registered in The Austin Healey Club of America 100 =
Registry.
It is a BN1 with Le Mans conversion. Not sure when the conversion was =
done.=20

=20

Last I saw the car listed was at Gullwing Motors (NY) in late 2011. It
apparently went to the UK after that.

Hi John,=20

There's more information on the car here: http://tinyurl.com/kskyb5h =20

According to the owner, the car was purchased by a U.S. soldier in =
Germany,
shipped to the U.S. in the 60s and went back to the UK in 2013.

Having made just a quick check I cannot find any car in our database =
with
that UK registration number.

=20

I have to presume that this means that the owner had not registered his =
car
with the Austin-Healey Club UK. As you said with a chassis number it =
would
help us all to keep an eye out for the car.

=20

I get the feeling that the registration (marque)  number 856 YUK would =
not
have been issued when the car was young. It was issued in Wolverhampton =
but
only counties or metropolitan areas' who had used up all the prefix =
letters,
would have used the reverse system of numbers before letters. YUK is a =
long
way from the first used of say xxx AUK so I would venture to guess that =
this
registration was issued in the early the 1960s but before the extra =
suffix
letter was added in 1962.

=20

This could mean that the car came back from outside the UK; but this =
sort of
speculation is of no help without a chassis number.
