1960 Austin Healey 3000 2+2 roadster Description:

A classic Healey 3000 Mk I that has been very well maintained. I have owned the car since 2011.Factory equipment included overdrive, heater, wire wheels and adjustable steering column.Modifications include a 12v alternator, Pertronix ignition with new distributor, coil and wires, electric auxiliary radiator cooling fan, Lucas flamethrower driving lights, 72 spoke chrome wire wheels and a spin-on oil filter. It has Nexen SB802 tires that have been shaved and balanced. The rear brake drums have been balanced. The twin SU carbs have been rebuilt and the clutch and kingpins replaced.The convertible top and frame stow behind the rear seat back. The side curtains are stowed in the boot.
The finish is very good with just a few paint chips and the chrome is in great shape. The interior is in good condition with appropriate wear for the age of the car. The door fit is fair. I've always used premium non-ethanol gasoline. 70251 is the speedometer mileage, the actual mileage is unknown.
