1960 Austin Healey 3000 Description:
This 1960 Austin-Healey 3000 MKI is a US-spec car built in November 1959 and delivered new to San Francisco. It was originally Ivory White with a red interior according to the included BMI Heritage Trust certificate, and was given a repaint in red and new black/red upholstery years ago.Power comes from a correct 3.0-liter inline-six paired to a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive.The car was repainted in 2013 just before I bought it..Also new brakes, new hubs, wheel bearings, a new convertible top, valence, front grille, hood intake, and badge bar. A stainless steel exhaust system is currently fitted.A new battery installed in Spring 2016.The car rides on knock-off chrome wire wheels wearing Signet SB-802 rubber all around.
The interior was previously redone in black with red piping. The side-curtain hardware was not installed when the new door panels were fitted, though it is included with the sale.
The previous owner said that the original wiring harness has been replaced, and all electrics work along with the heater. The odometer shows 89,691 miles, though documentation cannot confirm total mileage.
The 3.0-liter inline-six has been kept stock mechanically, with a new starter and electric fan added in 2013.
