A True Roadster
Originally introduced as a performance upgrade to the Healey line, the Austin-Healey 3000 quickly earned a reputation for its robust inline-six engine, competitive handling, and transcontinental appeal. The BT7 model, produced between 1959 and 1961, offered the longer wheelbase and occasional rear seating that made it a favorite among touring enthusiasts.
This example underwent a professional restoration approximately a decade ago, and it shows. From the crisp body lines to the stunning black and English ivory two-tone paint, the finish is both elegant and timeless. The wire wheels, brightwork, and polished trim lend just the right amount of vintage sportscar flair.
