1960 AUSTIN HEALEY 3000 - Lot 47

1960 AUSTIN HEALEY 3000 Serial Number: HBT7L25205 French registration 8 000/ 10 000 Beautiful restoration project Introduced to the public in 1959, the Austin Healey 3000 is the descendant of a line of English roadsters imagined after the Second World War by Donald Healey with the aim of making affordable, elegant, high-performance convertibles. Initially powered by a four-cylinder engine under the hood of the Austin Healey 100/4, the roadster soon adopted an in-line six-cylinder engine developing almost three liters and 125 horsepower in its first version, earning it the nickname "Big Healey". Three versions of the Austin Healey 3000 followed until 1968, with the BJ8 offering very decent performance for its time. Virtually complete and with its papers in order, this Austin Healey is a fine restoration project. Accompanied by its hard top, this car is just waiting to be restored and put back on the road. 1960 AUSTIN HEALEY 3000 Serial Number: HBT7L25205 French registration 8 000/ 10 000 Beautiful restoration project Introduced to the public in 1959, the Austin Healey 3000 is the descendant of a line of English roadsters imagined after the Second World War by Donald Healey with the aim of making affordable, elegant, high-performance convertibles.
