For Sale: 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 in St. Louis, Missouri for sale in Saint Louis, MO
Vehicle Description Nicknamed the Big Healey and one of Britain's best-known sports cars was the Austin Healey 3000 due to its powerful 6-cylinder engine.
The first Mark III BJ8's were introduced in December of 1963.
Refinements included better engine internals, twin 2 HD8 SU carburetors, improved exhaust system, and a walnut veneer dash to add a stronger element of luxury to a very deserving automobile! By May of 1964, the Phase II model introduced a modified rear suspension to allow for better ground clearance.
1967 was the final year for these sports cars and through its production run 17,712 Mark IIIs were built.
We are very proud to offer this beautiful 1967 Austin Healey 3000 Mark III convertible finished in Ivory White with a Black Ambla vinyl interior and top.
Powering this sharp driving Healey is a 2912cc inline 6-cylinder engine with twin SU carburetors and upgraded air cleaners mated to a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
This late production model was built in July and features a heater, adjustable steering column, black tonneau cover, 15 wire wheels, AM/FM radio, front disc brakes, Smiths gauges, wooden shift knob, chrome bumpers, folding rear seat, dashboard mounted rearview mirror, rubber mats, glovebox, laminated windshield, and a top boot.
This late production model shows 45,840 miles on the odometers and comes with a British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate.
Being treated to a complete transmission overhaul in April 2023, this Austin Healey largely remains a well-kept original vehicle.
The exterior surfaces were refinished in their factory appointed color by the previous owner who originally bought this Healey in 1990 and kept it for 30 plus years to enjoy sparingly in his large automobile collection.
New carpets were installed but the upholstery on the seats including the fold down rear seat remains all original, as is the factory paint still found under the trunk lid, engine compartment, and door jambs.
More recently, our museum upholstery shop fitted a new crush grain vinyl convertible top, along with a desirable cabin tonneau cover and new front seatbelts.
Our service department installed new engine side plate gaskets, gearbox oil seals, pinion seal, new radiator cap, oil filler cap, fresh spark plug wires, and new rear exhaust tips.
Providing quick throttle response and excellent steering, it's easy to see why these inline 6-cylinder Austin Healey Mark III's are still so beloved to this day.
If you're looking for a sporty driver or just a classic automobile that you can take out and enjoy, then look no further as this convertible! It is sure to excite you and have you waiting for the next good weather weekend for a cruise! Thank you for your interest and please reach out directly to our museum for more information and to schedule a time to come see this lovely Mark III in person.
