The exterior chrome has either been replaced or rechromed. The exterior of these 3000’s are timeless with the front grille and hood scoop that looks like it is coming to attack the street. The chrome wire wheels are a very nice addition to its appearance as well. The black interior has also been restored. The black leather on the seats is tastefully accented with the silver piping. Even though most of the interior is new, it still retains its great wood dash which is very good condition. Powered by the factory 2912 CC inline 6 cylinder that was installed in these BJ8 MKIII’s and fueled by the dual SU carburetors. Power is then transferred to the 4 speed manual transmission. The stopping power comes from the factory front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. The great sound comes from the factory style dual exit exhaust. The underside alone on this Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII goes to show just how solid this car was before the restoration and well maintained it was. There are few cars that warranted having mass produced replicas modeled after them and the 3000 was one of them. Here is a chance to own an authentic, last year production, Austin-Healey 3000.
