For Sale: 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 Mark III in Marietta, Georgia for sale in Marietta, GA
Vehicle Description Finished in Magnificent Black (orig.
colors), Exquisite Red Interior with Silver Piping and Black top, this Southern Estate (2) owner BJ8 has traveled only 47,000 original miles from new, with the second owner's documented stewardship for the past 49 years.
The Big Healey has a Magnificent Presence that many admirers respond to.
It brings smiles and comments from many enthusiasts.
To look down that long, beautiful bonnet and to hear that deep throaty growl emanating from the twin-tipped exhaust-it is arguably one of the Best Notes in the car world.
(Note:
An excellent sampling of this sound is available on the Startup Video).
There's little disagreement that when it comes to classic British sporting automobiles, the 3000 Mark III Big Healeys are among the Most Highly Prized.
Low slung, long-hooded, wire-wheeled, and narrow tires, these cars were as at home on the twisty English back roads, as they were at Hollywood movie premiers.
Wind-in-your-hair driving is just so British.
Offered here is a truly exceptional example.
Showing just over 47,000 miles, accumulated at a very conservative rate of only just over 1,000 miles per-year on average.
This low mileage is evidence of responsible stewardship for this legendary sports car.
This is borne out by the Pristine condition of every mechanical and cosmetic aspect of the car.
The Healey now displays in Exceptional collector-grade condition.
The car's exterior finish in Stunning Black (PPG-Base Coat/Clear Coat), characteristic vertical-slat chrome front grille (a piece of automotive artwork if ever there was one), original engine, and wire wheels (with center knock-off spinners) all reflect the care given and investments made in maintenance over the years.
The same is true for the brightwork, emblems (more automotive artwork), windshield, and lighting lenses.
The black top is without flaws.
In a similar fashion, the engine bay is concours-ready with all components properly located.
As suits most serious collectors, the engine bay is Show Ready.
Viewed from the undercarriage, the car's chassis is Show Quality.
Properly routed dual exhaust emanating from the 2.
9-liter inline 6-cylinder engine, together with the bottom view of a pristine powertrain and rust-free body, offer more conclusive proof of years-decades, actually-of meticulous care.
Inside, the stunning red interior adds visual contrast to the Classic Black Exterior.
The Red Carpeting, Door Panels, and Seating are all Pristine.
The full complement of Smiths surrounded by beautiful, burled walnut and tasteful touches of chrome across the dash, iconic steering wheel, floor-tunnel-mounted four-speed shifter all retain their classic originality.
