Austin Healey 3000 BT7 Mk1 for sale.
This car was professionally restored in the 00s and has been well maintained since. Just had a £2k gearbox rebuild at Hardy Engineering to resolve the popping out of gear issue, suffered by many big Healeys. New clutch and flywheel skimmed at the same time, now running beautifully. Just had a new battery fitted. The car has completed a 1000mile run to the Le Mans classic with no problems. Fitted with new Blockleys all round. Other improvements include;
Oil Cooler
Alarm
Spin on oil filter conversion
New SU HS6 carburettors
De-bumpered with side exit exhaust (standard exhaust and bumpers included in the sale, I can convert it back to standard if you would prefer)
Good hood and side panels
Overdrive
Mohair tonneau cover
Other than that it is standard and ready for any use.
I purchased from the estate of a friend after his sad death, with the Healey left in the garage. I have recommissioned the car, had some lovely trips and will be sad to see it go but I need the garage space back.
