Description
Capots Vintage, specialist in prestige and classic vehicles in Lyon, offers you this first version of the Austin Healey 3000: a BN7 MK1. Our car left the factory at the end of 1960 and was registered in 1961. The Austin Healey BN7 2-seater is a rare model because it was built for only 2 years and only 2, 800 were made. This car was fully restored in 2016 and then made more reliable by a specialist in the brand by fitting an electronic ignition, an alternator, a high-performance starter motor and an electric fan.
From an aesthetic point of view, the car is superb, its two-tone 'Healey Blue' and 'Ivory White' colour is the original, as is the navy blue upholstery with white piping, so it is 'matching colours'. During the restoration, the original engine was completely rebuilt, so it is also 'matching numbers', as attested by the British Motor Heritage certificate that accompanies the file. The road test we carried out confirmed the quality of the work carried out on this car, with very good overall balance and excellent handling. We have a photo file of the restoration as well as the original owner's manual.
Possible trade-in for your classic vehicle.
