1964 Austin-Healey 3000 MK III Roadster Additional Info:

1964 Austin Healey 3000 For consignment, a car which fits the definition of British sports car. Long hood, convertible, short curved back deck, wire wheels, 2-seater, (small rear seats), stick shift, and a beautiful tone to the exhaust as one motors down the curved blue highways. All in wonderfully restored and preserved condition, bathed in ...Red! Exterior This long-hooded chrome trimmed scooped oval grilled car is spot on, and spit spot on the restoration with beautiful red paint, beautiful chrome, and a nice black canvas drop top. Tastefully curved fenders with a single round headlight with chrome bezel and a top trim piece for the front fenders. The rear, albeit small, has a nice sloping down curve to complete the car. Window trimmings are all excellent, fender mounted mirrors are looking good for looking back and a nifty set of wire knockoffs are chromed and all shiny on each corner. This sports car also comes with a white plastic accessory hardtop. 15-inch Minator wide cast spoked wheels are wrapped with 185VR15 rubber all around and for the purists the original chrome wire knock off wheels are included. Interior Inside 2 black leather covered bomber style rounded low back buckets flank the center red carpet covered hump. These are nicely aged with no tears, just a few creases that come with well-aged leather and sport some wide cream colored piping on their edges. Upfront, a padded dash top covers a wood burl dash front. Here we see round blackface Smiths gauges with chromed bezels and a few pulls and knobs. On top of a black padded dash top is a center dash stalk mounted rear view mirror, decidedly British if I must say so mate! The dash center is in black and has the temp slider and a line up of chromed toggle switches. This black panel melts into a center console which houses the shifter and an ash receptacle. Fronting the dash is a wood rimmed 3 pointed star machined center steering wheel. In back of the buckets are 2 simple backless jump seats for those who want to ride along with the thrill! Cracking. Drivetrain As I flip the bonnet, I would expect nothing less than a fully buttoned up 2912cc inline 6-cylinder fed by dual SU HD8 Carburetors and a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive on back. 3.55 for the rear axle and a fine job has been performed on the restoration of the engine bay. Chip Chip Cheerio! Undercarriage Underneath has all been painted black over the factory red and it's chipping off just a bit and shows some patina for the X frame and floor pans as well the rockers. A stainless steel muffler is on and black rust-free suspension and drivetrain with some light oiling is noted. Disc brakes are upfront, and drums for the boot, and we are ready for a tool. Drive-Ability This car is cold blooded to start but once it gets running it purrs great, and after a warmup it was motoring off to the test track. With great handling, acceleration, quick shifting, and bias free braking, I felt like Nigel Mansell gliding her through Maggots and Becketts, and imagining the old RAF arriving and leaving for their sorties. I just love British sports cars, and this one is a 5-star version. And you get the Austin Healey 3000 hot seat after it warms up as the muffler is directly under the driver's seat! Fully restored, all looking chipper, and running like a pocket watch...a must see here in our Classic Mall halls. G'day. Classic Auto Mall is a 336,000-square foot classic and special interest automobile showroom, featuring over 850 vehicles for sale with showroom space for up to 1,000 vehicles. Also, a 400 vehicle barn find collection is on display.
