Description
1966 Austin Healey 3000 mk3 BJ8 in Colorado Red
**** Reduced as must sell imminently.****
Excellent opportunity to pick up this structurally solid, well maintained example with stunning red paintwork.
In present ownership since 2011 during which time it has had dry summer use only a being a regular visitor to Goodwood and The Revival along with other summer outings.
Not a concourse car, as indeed most aren’t, but definitely holds its own with excellent paint and chrome and regular maintenance and a good hood. All working well, last MOT 2022 (obviously no longer required routinely)
Structurally and mechanically sound it drives beautifully so ready to enjoy immediately just as it is but also a solid prospect for further fettling and refinement for someone with more time than I now have.
Any inspection welcome, though please only if seriously interested: I don’t have time to waste: car for sale in order to free up time for other responsibilities.
A sensible near offer will be given proper consideration in order to create time the time and space I need!
These cars need to be driven as well as looked at and so it’s time for a new home for this one! Get this sound example of this iconic classic now!
