The Austin-Healey 3000 was built from 1959 to 1967 and is the
best known of the 'big' Healey models. The car's bodywork was made
by Jensen Motors and the vehicles were assembled at the BMC
Abingdon works. The 3000 was a successful car which won its class
in many European rallies during its heyday and also ran at Le Mans
during that period; as such. it is still used in competition by
enthusiasts today. The Austin-Healey 3000 was the replacement for
the 100/6 model. The new car featured an enlarged 2912cc version of
Austin's six cylinder engine with twin SU carburettors and Girling
front disc brakes offering excellent performance resulting in the
model becoming a great success. The 3000 was only referred to as
the Mk. I once the Mk. II model was introduced in 1961.

Despatched from the BMC plant on 21st May 1960 and
exported to Pennsylvania in the USA. this Healey has recently been
repatriated to the UK. The vendor is a knowledgeable car enthusiast
and describes this car as being in very good order throughout. The
white coachwork shows no sign of corrosion and the interior has a
pleasant patina. According to the Heritage Certificate this BN7 was
manufactured with the following optional extras; wire wheels. br/>heater. adjustable steering column and an overdrive unit to the
gearbox. An application has been made to register the car in the UK
and the car is supplied with an MoT test certificate valid until
27th September 2016 (no advisories). This is certainly
one of the better lefthand drive Austin-Healey's we have seen
coming back from the U. S. and given the huge interest in the marque
of late. very attractively estimated.
