1960 Austin Healey 3000 MRK 1 BT7
Hawthorne Green, Black leather interior, 2+2 Roadster, Manual, 3.0 litres, 78,301 miles. VIN No HBT7L8889 AUS$ 79,950

This famous ex-Neil Dunn track car has just undergone an extensive four year all round restoration to return it to its former road going glory. The engine is in immaculate order and runs impeccably on its triple carbuerettors. The car is quick and reliable and handles superbly as it should.

Large history files are testimony to the extensive work and car that has been lavished on this most successful car.

This is a beautiful example of the marque synthesis formed by the partnership of Austin and the designer Donald Healey. This 'big' Healey is beautifully presented in dark green with rich black leather interior. Why not join the legends of Pat Moss, Paddy Hopkirk, Timo Makinen, Rauno Aaltonen in one of the great rally cars of all time - Austin Healey 3000s were winners of Liege-Rome-Liege, French Alpine, Austrian Alpine, Spa-Sofia-Liege, Tulip and also had podium finishes at the Germany RAC, Acropolis and Polish rallies.
