If you need someone to check-out your starter I would take it to Delta Battery.
You'll have to look them up. They are down off Wilson St.. I've had good luck
with them before and they rebuild them there.

Subject: [Nobbc] 1959 Austin Healey 3000 BT7 Starter?
Hoping for suggestions:
Just got my Healey back from my mechanics over in Stockton and turned it off
in my driveway and now it does not start. It only clicks once. Using my test
light and talking to my mechanic I have pinpointed the problem (I think) to a
bad starter. I have tried the hammer trick to no avail. I wish the mechanic
would have had a crystal ball to see that it was going to go bad because it
didn't give any indication.
Can anyone suggest a local British car repair shop that I can trust to put in
a new starter so I don't have to get my car towed to Stockton? My mechanic is
suggesting putting in a newly designed starter with a built in solenoid
(higher torque starter ratio or something like that) which requires a little
customization during installation. Or does anyone suggest just purchasing a
starter on the web or locally and think I can put it in myself? Please email
me your suggestions.
Thanks,
Krissy Klein
