Vehicle Description
CMC is proud to offer this 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 Mark III Phase 2
Convertible, a beautifully restored example of one of the most
iconic British roadsters. Finished in black with a red Ambla
interior and a black soft top, this car represents the final year
of the "Big Healey" and combines striking aesthetics with superb
performance.
The numbers matching 2,912cc inline-six engine, paired with the
four-speed manual gearbox and overdrive, delivers 148bhp at
5,350rpm, offering spirited acceleration and a thrilling driving
experience. The entire car underwent a comprehensive, nut-and-bolt
restoration by Austin-Healey expert Kurt Tanner, including a
complete rebuild of the engine and drivetrain. Every component,
from the suspension to the gauges, was carefully restored to ensure
the car performs as originally intended.
The exterior was stripped, primed, and painted with DuPont
basecoat/clearcoat to concours-level standards. Inside, the red
Ambla vinyl interior was restored to the highest quality, featuring
a walnut veneer dashboard, adjustable steering wheel, heater, and
comfortable bucket seats. The car also comes with a black Everflex
soft top and boot, enhancing its appearance.
The suspension and braking systems have all been rebuilt to ensure
smooth handling and reliable stopping power. The car rides on
Dayton 60-spoke stainless/chrome wire wheels, mounted with Michelin
radial steel-belted tires and octagonal knock-offs. The restoration
also included a new wiring harness, ensuring all electrical systems
are fully operational.
This Healey was originally dispatched to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada,
on April 11, 1967, and was originally finished in British Racing
Green with a black interior. During the restoration, Mr. Tanner
opted to refinish the car in a more iconic livery of a classic
Healey, resulting in this exceptional black exterior over the red
Ambla Interior. It is accompanied by a BMIHT Heritage Certificate,
confirming its original build details and matching numbers.
Having earned accolades at multiple concours events, including
First in Class at the 2004 Greater Valley Concours d'Elegance, this
Austin-Healey stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and
timeless appeal of the Big Healey. The car is accompanied by a
reprinted owner's manual and a photo album documenting its
meticulous restoration.
This 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 Mark III Phase 2 Convertible offers
exceptional performance, stunning aesthetics, and a complete
restoration that makes it perfect for both collectors and
enthusiasts. With its matching numbers and comprehensive
documentation, it's an outstanding example of the final year of the
legendary Austin-Healey 3000.
