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. Introduced in March 1961. the 3000 Mk. II came
with three SU carburettors and an uprated camshaft. designated the
BT 7 Mk. II (four-seat version) and BN 7 Mk. II (two-seat version) however. upon the introduction of the BJ 7 (2+2 seats) model in
January 1962. the number of carburettors was reduced to two. As a
result of the introduction of the BJ 7. the BN 7 ceased production in
March 1962. with the BT 7 coming to an end in June.

This supremely elegant 3000 presents in the classic Healey
combination of Ice Blue over Old English White with a contrasting
black leather interior. Originally an export car and with overdrive
fitted from new. it has since been repatriated and the steering
wheel moved to the righthand side. The body has been fully restored
with the addition also of new chrome wire wheels. Included in the
extensive history file is a UK registration certificate and a
British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate. described by the
vender as close to excellent throughout. this archetypal British
sportscar could not only make a sound investment but deliver the
visceral experience that these sportscars are famous for.
