Offered here is a 1960 BT7 which, is a great example of this iconic British sports car finished in Brilliant Red with a Black interior. The history of this BT7 is known, as it was bought new by a U.S. serviceman stationed in Germany in 1960 who brought it back to the states a short time later. He took excellent care of it until, parting with it in 2010 ending 40 years of ownership. Always garaged and never driven in inclement weather, this example is a solid car that never had any rust. It was then fully restored by noted marque specialist, Sanford Ressler who brought it back to complete showroom condition. The fit and finish on this 3000 is amazing with a deep gloss shine and all panels in correct alignment. This is a matching numbers Healey that would score high points at any judged competition. Austin Healey's magnificent styling is clearly evident in its classic roadster design and this example features a fully detailed engine compartment and an interior that speaks to the very heart of the classic British roadster. This 3000, also has its Austin Healey Heritage Certificate and comes with both hard and soft tops.
