Austin-Healey’s and the Austin Healey Car Club of NZ and Others

[Roger Dowding]

Recent photos have emerged of AHS3707 Which was owned by Fred Cohen and was being restored when I saw it in 1982 at the 30th Anniversary of the Austin Healey, at Snowmass ( at Aspen ) ski resort in Colorado. Most work had been done, but later Steve Pike from Australia did remedial work to correct some faults.
At the time of Snowmass, the car arrived on a truck and was going from California to the East Coast [ I understand. ]

" Ivo Visser together with David Gooding in AHS3707 at Amelia Island 2011 before making a test-drive.
The 100S was sold at the Gooding auction to an investersgroup! As fas as I know it was later sold to the UK and was entered in 2015 at RM Sotheby's Auctions listed € 900.000,-- - € 1.100.000, but failed to sell. "
The photo from 2011.
