72-spoke chrome wire wheels
Vredestein Sprint Classic tires 185/70HR15

Odometer shows 32,153 miles -- less than 150 miles driven since nut-and-bolt restoration

Please, note that this was a complete frame off, nut and bolt restoration, which took almost 18 years to finish correctly. Absolutely no expense or time was spared.
We truly believe this might be the best restored 3000 BJ8 in the world. Fact is, we have never seen a nicer Austin-Healey than this one in over 20 years on the show circuit.
This stunning automobile has less than 150 careful miles on it since the restoration was finished and can truly be called "fully sorted."
