About this car

This 1966 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk3 was first registered in Torquay in October 1966. It is finished in the classic black and red duo-tone scheme, with a red leather interior, a black hood with red stitching and wire wheels with two-eared spinners. The Mk3 is the last and most refined of the big Healeys, and this one has the four-speed manual gearbox with overdrive.

Documented history begins in 1985, with invoices and MOT certificates running to 2017, when the last test was recorded at 92,949 miles. The odometer now reads 94,300, which means only about 1,400 miles in the last nine years. The current owner bought it in 2022 and has spent more than £15,000 on mechanical work, including a new alloy sump, a new overdrive unit and a new steering box.

Extras include a badge bar, Motolita steering wheel, boot rack, original tool kit and spare wheel. The car is offered on a commission basis with no warranty.
