Austin Healey 3000 (1962)
for sale

Price: US $25,000.00

Description:

Ultra-Dependable and Comfortable, this wonderful 1962 Austin Healey 3000 Roadster is ready to drive anywhere. Always well-cared-for. Never rusted. Never abused. Several upgrades make this Healey far superior to a standard 3000. Say Goodbye to the typical (British) headaches of smelly fuel leaks, poor starting, over-heating, etc... thanks to its Nissan 280-ZX engine & 5-Speed transmission. This is a bolt-in upgrade; no cutting, drilling or welding was required. (Also includes original Healey engine and O/D transmission) It tracks perfectly on the open road on its brand new Dunlop SP tires & new Dayton chrome wire wheels. The clutch and transmission are buttery smooth. And its new Healey Stainless Steel exhaust system sounds nice and throaty, just like a stock Healey.
The paint is excellent overall (you'll be accused of driving a show car but there are some minor chips and blemishes). The interior is very nice and the chrome & stainless are excellent, as you can see. The doors, hood and trunk all shut beautifully, as expected on a straight car with no frame sag (& never any collision damage).
This is one of those rare, honest, useful blue-chip investments that your entire family can enjoy. It's fun to drive and it's fast. Since its restoration, It's been driven twenty-two thousand miles with never a moment's trouble. Fly in and Drive it home with confidence.
If you have questions, do ask them before the auction closes. In fairness to all bidders I'll not disclose the car's reserve, but it is far less than the cost of a restoration (and this car is far better in use than a stock restored 3000). I can be reached here in Nashville at 615-497-5530. Please feel free to call me before you bid if I can be of help. Better yet, I encourage you to come in to personally inspect this Healey to make certain it fulfills your standards.
