for sale

Price: US $26,500.00

Description:

This is your chance to own a highly desirable 1959 Austin Healy 3000. This is one of the first 3000's as the original 3000 was built from March 1959 to March 1961. This is a BT7 Mark I (2+2 version). It is fitted with the original 2912 cc engine, with twin SU Carburetors and Girling front disc brakes. It also has Wire spoke wheels, electric overdrive gearbox, new carpets, up hostelry and door trim.
The vehicle starts first time every time, is a joy to drive and has the distinctive Healy sound that true sports car enthusiasts love to hear. It is attractively priced to sell however do not let that fool you. This is a quality car with great paintwork, new interior, carpets and chrome and all dials and equipment are working well. It comes with knock off wire spoke wheels and all tools.
Drives great and overdrive slips in and out on the flick of the switch. This car is a head turner and I am am reluctant to let it go however circumstances dictate reluctancy.
I have been asked it the chassis and engine are a match and the answer is yes. I included photos of the plates.
I am going to offer the vehicle to any serious buyer. I have already sold this vehicle twice to parties who did not follow through which is why I am required to re-list. Please feel free to contact me at any time with any realistic offer. The vehicle is located in Lafayette, Louisiana.
