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.
Interior & Mechanical Highlights:
• Beautifully upholstered black leather interior with caramel
inserts and piping
• Detailed engine bay showcasing the strong-running 2.9L
inline-6
• Smooth-shifting 4-speed manual gearbox, offering a proper classic
driving experience

• Comes with a comprehensive history binder including: restoration
documents, manuals
• Well-maintained and regularly exercised to preserve mechanical
integrity
Few classics capture the magic of the open road like a "Big
Healey," and this BT7 stands out for its originality, restoration
quality, and overall presentation. It's a car that draws admiration
at shows, yet is mechanically sound and ready for spirited drives
on winding backroads. Whether you're looking to expand a collection
or finally step into the world of British motoring, this Healey
offers the perfect opportunity.
