1962 Austin-Healey 3000MKII

3726-PHX 1962 AUSTIN HEALEY 3000 MARK II A brilliant red 1962 Austin Healey 3000 Mark II with a gleaming white hardtop and matching white side stripes - now thats a color combination thatll get your heart racing! The MkII BT7 is a sweet spot for Healey enthusiasts, blending the larger MkII engine with lightweight doors and removable roofs for the purest sports car experience. Rolling on classic 15 stainless wire knock-off wheels wrapped in period-correct 165/80R15 tires from 2009, this little British bombshell looks ready to carve up some winding roads. Slip inside and youre greeted by a red vinyl interior that carries through the vibrant exterior theme. The bucket seats show some character from miles of motoring enjoyment, but theyre still ready to hold you snug through every curve. A classic banjo-style steering wheel puts you in command, while the center console-mounted shifter for the 4-speed manual with overdrive falls readily to hand, just begging you to click through the gears. Side curtains stand ready to fend off any errant raindrops, although we think this Healey looks best with the top stowed and the sun shining in. Tilt the long, sculpted hood forward and youll find the original numbers-matching 2.9L inline-six, fed by a trio of SU carburetors. Its a setup that provides an addictive soundtrack from the dual exhaust as the rpm climb. With a full $30k motor rebuild in 2020, this powerplant is running in peak form. The front discs and rear drums have seen recent service too, so you can drive with confidence. And when the road opens up, just flick the overdrive switch on the dash to settle into a cruise.
