This 1958 Austin-Healey 100-6 BN4 roadster underwent a repaint and an interior re-trim as part of a refurbishment completed under previous ownership. The car is finished in red and black with a removable black soft top over 2+2 seating trimmed in black upholstery with red piping. It is powered by a 2.6-liter inline-six fitted with dual SU carburetors that is backed by a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Further details include Lucas fog lights, 15″ knock-off wire wheels, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, and a cabin heater. This 100-6 was acquired by the current owner in 2024 and is now offered on dealer consignment in Missouri with Alabama registration.

The car was repainted in red and black as part of the aforementioned refurbishment. A badge bar up front is fitted with Lucas fog lights, and further equipment includes a removable black soft top, a hood scoop, fender-mounted mirrors, and chrome bumpers with overriders.

The 15″ silver-finished wire wheels are secured by two-ear knock-offs and mounted with 165-width Cooper Sportmaster GLT tires. A matching spare with an older Michelin tire is stored in the trunk. Braking is handled by drums at each corner.

The refurbished interior houses 2+2 seats trimmed in black upholstery with red piping. Further details include a heater, a dash-mounted mirror, a passenger-side grab handle, and door pockets.

The banjo-style steering wheel wears a wood rim and is paired with an Austin Healey–branded wood shift knob. Smiths instrumentation consists of a 120-mph speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 74k, approximately 100 of which were added under current ownership.

The car is powered by a 2.6-liter inline-six that was equipped from the factory with dual SU carburetors. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
