Summary:
Used 1966 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk III BJ8, 39,300 miles, Red
Location:
Alabaster, AL
Description:
This beauty was purchased by the current owner approximately 15 years ago. He believes he may be the third owner but isn't 100% sure on that. Roughly 9 years ago, he pulled her apart and had a mild restoration done. She was painted, seats and interior upholstery were redone, bumpers re-chromed, new wheels and tires, many new suspension pieces, bushings, new top, etc. The tires are Nexen Radials in 165/80R15 size. There were a bunch of trim pieces that were not touched as they were fine back then. Unfortunately, even then, the owner was not able to comfortably fit in her and the car was relegated to being shuttled from one garage/property to another by a friend and that is the limit of the driving the car has seen over the last 9 years, maybe a 100-150 miles a year. She was started regularly. During that time frame some attrition of those trim pieces has occurred and some minor pitting can be seen on some interior bits and the right wing window latch became stripped and is in the glove box. Some of the vinyl upholstery on the console has started to peel and some minor cracks have occurred on the dash's wood veneer. The last bit of bad news is the paint next to the gas filler has lifted in a couple of spots and the engine is not the original engine according to the British Heritage Cert. What's left is all good to great news. She is absolutely stunning in her original color of Colorado Red and the original issue black leather interior was maintained. Other than the aforementioned issue near the gas filer, the paint is in awesome condition, with maybe only one other small chip in the paint. The chrome gleams and the wire wheels sparkle in the sunlight. The seats are firm and comfortable. The options listed on the Heritage Cert are: Wire wheels, Overdrive, adjustable steering column, heater, laminated windscreen, road speed tires, black hood (top), and leather upholstery. What made these the big Healey's was the 2.9L inline 6 that pushed out. Still available at ListedBuy!
