This is a very rare item. The blue 300 Austin Healey is a much sought-after model which appears to have been produced in very small numbers in its first release in 1956 only.
This has had some additional detailing added, including some silver paint on the door handles and the interior changed to black and brown (which may well be more realistic). This work has been very well done and the blue paintwork itself is in excellent condition, the car clearly not having been played with much itf at all.
It can be seen that it is an original with blue clearly visible underneath the wheel arches and the base has not been removed at any time, the original rivets being secure in place.
I have added a replacement windscreen but otherwise, apart from the areas mentioned, this is a genuine model and not a red or cream model which has been repainted.
