Description
1959 / 60 Austin Healey 3000
This listing for a 1959 or 1960 Austin Healey 3000 that belongs to a close friend of mine. The car has been sitting outside for many years and is in rough condition but has many original parts and also has the original engine and drivetrain. As far as I can tell the engine has never been out of the car, the odometer shows 28,000 miles but, obviously, I have no way to confirm that. I tend to this it's accurate because most of these cars, when new were used for fun and amateur sports car racing. This car would be a perfect donor for someone that is restoring one of these great British classics or could be restored on it's own. This is really a great car, highly sought after and I would love to see it go to someone that will appreciate it for what it is.
As can be seen from the photos, the car suffered front end damage at some point in it's life. The hood, and many of the body panels look to be in good condition though and could be restored or used for templates. The windshield and dash seem to be in pretty decent condition and the car still has it's original banjo steering wheel and Smith's gauges, very cool!
The car also comes with the following (please see pictures).
- 3 Original Knock Off Wire Wheels - Good Restorable Condition
- 2 Good Rear Leaf Spring Assemblies - Good Restorable Condition
- Original Seat Pans - Good Restorable Condition
- Convertible Top Assembly - Good Restorable Condition
- 2 Original Side Windows - Still Work and in Good Restorable Condition
- Miscellaneous Lever Assemblies
- Additional Rear Bumper Assembly - Good Restorable Condition
- 2 Front Bumperettes - Good Restorable Condition
- Many Aluminum Interior Trim Pieces - Good Restorable Condition
It has been many years since this car has been moved so that responsibility would be entirely up to the buyer. I will however, assist in any way possible and will try to answer any and all questions. Once again, the goal is to get this car in the hands of someone that will appreciate it for what it is!
