AUSTIN-HEALEY 3000

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2025 on Sunday the 24th of August, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN.

The 3000 Mk III was launched in October 1963 and remained in production until the end of 1967 when production of all Austin-Healeys ceased

Classified as the BJ8, the new model was the most powerful and luxurious of the big Healeys with a walnut veneered dash, wind-up windows and 150bhp. Improvements to the engine included a revised camshaft, valve springs, and twin SU HD8 carburettors together with a redesigned exhaust system and servo-assisted brakes

Finished in Colorado Red over a black leather interior with matching black hood and sits on chrome wire wheels

In current ownership since 2006, it was subject to a full ground up restoration by Graham Goodall in early 2000s

Supplied with its BMIT Certificate, original 'buff' logbook and invoices including a clutch slave and master cylinder replacement in April 2025

In very good condition all round, this rare Phase 1 would make an ideal introduction into the friendly world of the 'Big Healey'
