Maybe, though it's hard to tell from photographs. If original, the paint is 60 years old and could have aged/faded differently on different panels, with sun exposure, etc. I'm inclined to give this seller the benefit of the doubt (although the hood looks awfully good for 60 years). Don't think the wheels are original, either. 

On another note, anyone know what Healeys were shot with originally (lacquer, enamel, ...)?

Looks like an extremely nice car, but original paint it ain't. It seems 
at least partially repainted, a bit more extensive than touched up. 
There are very slight differences in colour of various panels in the 
pictures.
