AUSTIN HEALEY 3000 Mark 111
This was nearing the final phase
for the elegant Austin Healey’s. Fortunately the character remained throughout
the improvement process turning the car from a performance sports car with few
creature comforts to a high-speed luxury touring car of its day. The pressed
steel dash of the original cars gave way to a beautiful wood veneer version
along with a handsome center console and the exhaust was finally revised
allowing the cars to be driven over something greater than a pebble without
scrapping the road. Power was increased with the aid of larger 2-inch SU
Carburetors to 150 horsepower from the 3 litre 6-cylinder engine. This car also
has the overdrive 4-speed gearbox. The example we have here is one of those
great original style cars, having only had two California owners since new. To
find Austin Healey’s with such long ownership history is certainly a rarity
now. Serviced by the same local Austin Healey specialist for the last 27 years
aproximatley. Rust appears non-existent with floors that are amazing as is the
trunk, wheel wells and rocker panels. The car has had a street style
restoration over the years that included new paint, chrome, new interior and a
rebuilt engine at around 100, 000 miles. Now the car still shows very well, with
a nice very bright and restored look.
Finished in its original Old
English White with Red Leather interior and Black convertible top.
