Forever Healeys was born in 1998 when Lynn Martin, owner of a successful commercial painting business, retired on his 48th birthday, to pursue his passion with the Austin Healey. He restores one car per year.

Since 1967, Lynn has had the pleasure of restoring numerous British sports cars as a hobby for himself and for others. His love of the cars, attention to detail, and years of research in determining authenticity of original components, sets him apart from other restorers.

While in high school, Lynn attended an innovative and progressive vocational program in Boulder, Colorado to learn the basic skills that have evolved into true craftsmanship. In 1970 Lynn restored a Triumph TR-3 for a friend. Later the same year he bought a TR-4. As this was his only car and driven everyday, keeping it running smoothly was of the highest importance. During this entire period, while working on his own car and restoring cars for others, Lynn was able to continue refining and perfecting his restoration abilities.

Lynn now owns five big Healeys, ranging from a Gold Concours Healey 3000, a BT7 driver plus three needing restoration. Lynn is retired and is concentrating on getting all of his Healeys restored. He does most of the work in his own shop so he produces only quality and not excuses.

Below is brief listing of the many awards won by British cars restored by Lynn. Cars restored by him are presently winning shows from coast to coast and in Canada. We were especially proud to have had one of his restorations make the cover of Austin Healey Marque. It is a BN4 that he restored a couple of years ago.

Some of notable shows have included:
