Built 18th-19th February 1963 and dispatched on the 1st March of that year, YNF 286A is a original Healey Blue with Navy interior, overdrive and wire wheel car. Fully restored in 1988 the car has covered around 20,000 miles since with many further improvements made more recently. As fantastic driving, upgraded LHD Healey the car would make for great touring on the continent or could be converted to RHD very easily for the new owner.

Externally YNF 286A presents wonderfully. The Healey Blue metallic paintwork has a wonderful shine to it, the chrome wire wheels dazzle and the badge bar plus original works style luggage rack with a leather period suitcase makes it a very visually charming car.

On the inside the Navy upholstery remains in pleasing shape since restoration with period auxiliary gauges nicely integrated into the centre of the dash and all fully operational. The carpet is a lighter finish than typically finish which brightens up the interior nicely. Protective rubber over mats are also fitted.

Mechanically YNF is in very good shape with new leaf springs and tyres having just been fitted.
