• Belgian registration documents and Belgian Car-Pass present

The Austin-Healey 3000 MkIII Convertible is one of the most recognisable British sports cars of the 1960s. Its long bonnet, classic roadster lines and open-top driving experience give it the character for which the big Healeys remain highly appreciated today.

This example was first registered on 22 April 1965 and is finished in British Racing Green. The 2,912 cc engine is paired with a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive. The indicated mileage is 79,314 miles.

The car underwent a professional restoration in the past. The bodywork was repainted and shows signs of use. The interior was also restored and presents well, with signs of use consistent with the age and use of the car.

Technically, the Austin-Healey drives very well. The engine is in good, honest condition and the car has been well maintained. The clutch, 4-speed manual transmission, overdrive and brakes all function well. Points of attention include oil loss around the cylinder head gasket, a handbrake that requires adjustment and the older tyres.

Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared an inspection report for this vehicle.
