1961 Austin Healey 3000 Mk IBT7

Restored by a “Marque Specialist” to concours condition

This car recently went through a serious professional build by an internationally known and award winning Healey builder. The results are an over the top concours quality car with exacting attention to detail.With less than 50 miles since completion it is far better than factory new (odometer shows 555 miles, actual miles unknown, as per Texas law will be shown as miles exempt since over 25 years of age).

This is serious car lover “jewelry”…… the quality, the sound, the road experience and the eye-popping looks just pull you in. If you have been considering an investment grade classic, this one has benefited greatly from the “masters touch” and deserves serious consideration. Some of the Austin Healeys restored by Tom & Randee Rocke of "Healey Lane" have sold in the $100,000 to $200,000 range. Please take time to appreciate the quality of this very special Austin Healey, it’s truly automotive art. A fully “photo documented” restoration book/DVD and British Heritage Trust Certificate comes with the car. Below are more details.

Terms & Conditionsof this sell& all legal stuff

Although my eBay experiences have been very positive, I am aware that much goes on within the eBay community that is not positive and therefore requires direct language.

Do NOT make a bid or offer until you read everything below.

Any bid or offer is a legal acknowledgement and agreement on your part to be bound by the Terms and Conditions put forth below and additionally specified within eBay itself.

Have FUNDS ready PRIOR to bidding or making an offer. Full payment must be received within five (7) business days of the end of auction/sale unless I agree in writing to alternative terms.

WIRE TRANSFER IS PREFERRED for US buyers and required for all buyers “outside” the United States.

Cashier’s check, direct deposit or cash in person are acceptable but in ALL cases this vehicle and its title will NOT be released until complete payment is received and all funds have irrevocably cleared BOTH Banks. If paying by Bank Cashiers Check, I must receive a copy of any Bank Cashiers Check in ADVANCE along with your “internal bank contact information” for confirmation of your Bank Check by my Bank. Bank Cashiers checks MUST BE classified by my bank as having irrevocably cleared both Banks prior to my release of vehicle and title.

Loan checks must be agreed to by me PRIOR to you making a bid or offer.Money Orders are NOT accepted.

I have an agency relationship with a Licensed Texas Dealer and all cars will be sold through this Dealer. Texas buyers will have to pay Texas sales tax and license/registration fees. Out of state buyers are responsible for taxes in their own states.

This is a very nice vehicle. However, there is no such thing as a "PERFECT" vehicle...especially when dealing with vintage vehicles. This is not a new vehicle; it is decades old.Even a restored or partially restored vehicle can and will have flaws and normal wear and tear congruent to its age and/or mileage.This vehicle may have minor dings, scratches (or, other imperfections) and indications of wear and use because it has been used.

It is the responsibility of the buyer and/or buyers agent to have thoroughly inspected the vehicle (prior to the end of the eBay listing), and to have satisfied themselves as to the condition and value and to bid or offer based upon that judgment solely.

Arranging for an independent third-party inspection is a great way to validate a seller's claims about a vehicle's condition. There are many companies and individuals who offer such a service. These services are listed on the internet and can be found in most collector car magazine publications. Of course your personal inspection and scrutiny are suggested and most welcomed. Any and all inspections must occur PRIOR to the end of this eBay listing.
