1965 Austin-Healey 3000 Mark III BJ8 in Stratford, Connecticut

Vehicle Description

Excellent body, paint, floors, sills, rockers, body mounts, etc. Excellent interior....original or replacement? Dunno. But it is certainly excellent. As is chrome, trim, engine bay detailing, wiring, hydraulics, on and on.

Runs at 60 psi oil pressure, as listed in the owner's manual. No smoke cold or hot. Smooth and very powerful, what with 150hp. And the transmission is a dream....quiet in first and reverse, excellent synchromesh, effortless shifting, and the overdrive clicks 'in' and 'out' instantly. As it should

New top, very clean trunk, very good boot cover and full tonneau, converted to negative ground and a modern stereo added. Stainless steel exhaust, runs cool on hot days, and what a dream at 80 or 90 mph...excellent ride, remarkably light steering, in the world of classic English sports cars, it really doesn't come any better.
