The Healey 3000 is a car of British descent built from 1959 to 1967. Popularly known as the 'Big Healey,' the bodywork is a result of Jensen Motors Craftsmanship that was assembled at BMS's MG Works in Abingdon. The Mark III in particular, made its debut in 1964 with increased power and power-assisted braking as a standard option. Known for their big power, the Big Healey was one of the stars of its time, being one of Austin Healey's most admired and sought-after models. This one-of-a-kind example resides in Pennsylvania with 53,647 miles to its name, waiting for adventures that lie ahead. It features an engine that was restored just a few years ago, added to what was a ground-up restoration with many original parts and even the original documentation intact.
The exterior comes in classic sports coupe fashion and is painted British racing green. The garage-kept example has been with its current owner for over twenty years, who reports that its maintenance and full service have been recently completed. This 1967 Austin Healey 3000 MK3 also included a spare tire, new battery, partial roll bar along with all original jacks, and both tonneaus that complete this ground-up restoration. To complete the look, this car sits on a set of multi-spoke wheels that are wrapped in new Michelin tires. The black interior looks equally impressive, sporting black leather seats and door panels and a wooden dashboard and chrome accents for a refined finish.
Responsible for power is a 2.9L C-Series 16 engine capable of producing up to 150BHP at 5200RPM via a four-speed manual transmission. To put that into perspective, the owner states that “the car runs like a rocket right now.”
The Austin-Healey 3000 is one of the larger examples of a quintessential '60s British sports car. Made between 1959 and 1967, it came with a larger engine and an overall more spacious interior. Hence, if you’re searching for a British roadster that’s more spacious than the stereotype, pick this 1961 Austin-Healey 3000 BN7 from our carefully curated inventory. Bearing a mere 15,000 miles on the odometer, this car has reportedly been fully restored, which is why it looks amazing. And let us tell you a little secret; it reportedly goes as well as it looks!
The ‘Big Healey’ as it’s known, the Austin-Healey 3000 is the largest of the diminutive sports car line-up from British manufacturer Austin-Healey. A name no longer seen, as is the fate of many small British sports car makers, the 3000 packed, as you may guess, a nearly 3.0-liter engine, and the quintessential open-top motoring experience. This 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ8 Mk-III comes to you with authenticity documentation, and just 68,490 miles on it.
Austin-Healey was a British automaker established through a partnership with the Austin Motor Company, and Donald Healey Motor Company. This outfit produced quintessential British sports cars in the 1950s and 1960s. Whilst many Austin-Healey models such as the Sprite were dinky little things, the Austin-Healey 3000 was known as the ‘Big Healy’, as it was much larger and more suited for markets such as the US. Produced from 1959 to 1967, the ‘Big Healey’ could be had as a roadster or convertible. What we’ve got here is one of these British gems, a 1965 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ8 Mk III from Rhode Island with just 54,200 miles under its skin, with a BMIHT certificate to boot. Only 17,712 Mk IIIs were manufactured.
