Selling Points: This is the rare and famous Tri-Carb BT7 3000 Mark II 4-seat model. 4-speed with overdrive toggle, push button starter, red with red interior, soft top, 2 tonneau covers, wire wheels, and other extras. Runs strong and performs great. The big Healey's have a reputation for being owned by people who want to drive them, and this car attracts a lot of attention on the streets. It is started and run every week and I take it on the road at least once a month. Includes a low-profile transport trailer that fits the car perfectly and slips into a garage easily so it doesn't have to be stored separately. This car is truly a must see to believe.
Condition: This was my uncle's car and I purchased it from him in 2003. He had the engine rebuilt and the odometer turned to zero to reflect that event ... the mileage currently is at 7,655. Following the engine rebuild, the care was stripped, painted, and upholstered. The soft top is in superb condition, but it is missing a strap of some sort that helps keep it snug. All the accessories work. Some of the the original components are showing wear, such as the steering wheel and wire wheels. Runs strong and performs great. This car is ready now to cruise anywhere in style.

Sellers description:
This Austin Healey 3000 is a superb example of this legendary car. She is ready for you to climb in an take a short spin or go for a much longer cruise. Everything from the mechanics to the body to the interior are in great shape, ready to take you on that fantasy trip.
The red interior is simple and designed to connect you with the road. Sitting in the bucket seat, you are just a few inches from the ground. Turn the key, adjust the choke, and press the start button; and the I-6 engine will come to life. Grab the wheel, depress the clutch, and select first gear, and you are off...You will notice immediately how the car translates the road to you. As you work your way up through the four gears you will gain appreciation of the triple-carbureted engine and the simple fun the car provides. The steering is quick and near effortless and the front disc brakes provide all the stopping power you will need. Yes, this is a drivers car!
At a stoplight, check out the rest of the cabin. The red interior offers seating for four, or you can use the rear seats for extra luggage. A black tonneau cover effectively hides the rear seats and can extend over the passenger seat or enclose the entire cabin. Roll the cover up and put it away, take out the side curtains, and put up the convertible top and you suddenly have a fun little coupe that is sure to get noticed. The convertible top stows away neatly behind the rear seats. The side curtains are in good shape with light scrapes on the Plexiglas and frames. The interior, top, and tonneau cover are all in great shape.
Admirers will notice the stunning red paint drapes over the sleek body lines and is highlighted by the chrome bright work. The body is solid and free from dents and dings. The frame and pan are all solid with no signs of deterioration. The wire wheels sparkle in the sunlight and there is plenty of tread left on the tires.
If you have been looking for a fun fair weather driver, this is a great choice. This iconic British sports car is in great shape and ready for adventure!
