Austin-Healey 3000 MKII BT7

This is an early home-market Austin-Healey 3000 MkII in BT7 2+2 form, a version built in fairly small numbers. Heritage documentation shows it was built in February 1962 and sold new through Car Mart of London, then first registered in June 1962. It stayed in the London area, later moved to Sevenoaks and then Worcestershire, where it remained until 2022. It is right-hand drive, has overdrive and is finished in Florida Green over cream with a black leather interior.

The main story is recent mechanical work. The current vendor bought it three years ago and had a specialist carry out a comprehensive rebuild, documented by invoices totalling just over £36,000. The engine was rebuilt with +60 pistons and reground bearings, the clutch is new, and the gearbox and overdrive have been rebuilt. The brakes were overhauled, and it has a heavy-duty starter, big-bore manifold and side-exit exhaust. Since the rebuild it has covered about 400 miles.

The dealer says the exterior is being repainted before sale. The car is MOT and road tax exempt and has had nine former keepers. A boxed Oxford Diecast 1/76 model of the car, carrying the same registration, is included. The page lists it as coming soon and gives no odometer reading.
