SOLD

Austin Healey 3000 MKII A BJ7

Summary

Matching numbers Austin-Healey 3000 with Heritage Certificate, originally a left-hand drive BJ7 Mark IIA Convertible model delivered new to Nuffield Exports Limited USA on 27th July 1962. The Healey returned back to the UK from Oregon USA in 1989 and for 23 years remained unused and dry stored before its restoration commenced in 2010.

The only UK owner of 31 years carried out an extensive restoration undertaken during 2010 to 2012 has been fully documented in the comprehensive history file with invoices for parts and detailed work carried out, plus a full photographic record of over 120 pictures of the car before, during and after restoration,   

Works carried out include a full nut & bolt extensive restoration to the highest standard with exceptional attention to detail, all original steel panels, completely restored original interior, full mechanical overhaul including brakes and suspension - all with original refurbished items or new sourced from specialist Companies.  This show standard BJ7 still remains in pristine order throughout, including the underside. 

Originally supplied Ivory White with black interior, it has been refinished in the same exterior colour but re-trimmed in a more striking red leather with matching carpets, hood and tonneau cover.  The restoration was completed and the car back on the road in March 2012, since then it has covered a little over 900 miles. 

This is an outstanding example and one of the finest Austin-Healey 3000's we have seen. Desirable and refined this one not to be missed especially with values increasing year on year.

A Fresh 12 month MOT will be issued up on sale and of course the Healey is HPI Clear.

More details

The Austin-Healey 3000 is probably the very epitome of the classic British sports car and said to have attained classic status whilst still in production.

In January 1962 the 2+2-only MkII Convertible (or MkIIA) version of the much-loved Austin-Healey 3000 appeared, boasting long overdue refinements such as winding windows, swivelling quarter-lights and fixed foldaway hood. The reversion to easier-to-tune, twin-SU carburettors cut maximum output by 1bhp, yet thanks to the superior aerodynamics, conferred by its curved windscreen, the MkII Convertible contrived to be marginally faster than its immediate predecessor, reaching 116mph flat out. MkII production ceased in 1962 after 5,095 2+2s and 355 two-seaters had been built, though the Convertible continued until the introduction of the 3000 MkIII in 1963.
