1960 Austin Healey 3000 Additional Info:
Vehicle Overview I bought my first Healey in 1976,a nice little red 100-4.This car started 41 year love affair and a career in the European and Collector car business.I have pulled Healey cars out of dumps,fields,and prestigious homes with many an early Saturday adrenaline driven rush to answer a print ad.I have driven them so rusty they should not have been on the road and I have driven restored beauty queens. NEVER have I driven and reviewed a better example then this absolutely stunning 3000! After reviewing the pages and pages of parts and documentation of laborious hours of effort put forth to create this lovely machine,I now know why the car looks and drives so magnificient.My intent for reviewing the documentation was to highlight some of the most important items replaced or rebuilt during restoration.After reviewing the pages of receipts I cannot do it justice by just highlighting particular items,the entire car has been refurbished.My absolute respect goes to the man and men that took the hours and days as well as thousands and ten thousands of dollars to restore this car and do it correctly. Is it perfect? Not anymore,the restoration took place nearly six years ago, it is so close and oh so exciting to look at and drive.Review the 88 pictures I have posted on this review,if your heart does not start racing from viewing this car,you had better see a cardiologist.The windshield has a crack in it and will be replaced prior to shipping the car to the next fortunate owner.The car comes with a British Heritage Certificate,full documentation of restoration,hard top and original two carb set up.There is no way one can appreciate this example by looking at pictures and not experiencing the drive, therefore an invitation is open to all to come to Nashville Tn to touch,feel,and hear this lovely Healey.You may contact me at 615-971-4409.This and other European Collectibles may be reviewed at JPFRAZIER.com.There will be an additional $99 dealer doc fee assessed to the final sell price.
