Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII BJ8 – 1965 – Heritage Certificate – LHD – Overdrive

The Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII BJ8 is widely regarded as the ultimate and most desirable evolution of the legendary "Big Healey".

Presented in an elegant Colorado Red and Ivory White two-tone colour scheme, this 1965 BJ8 combines timeless styling, the unmistakable character of the 3-litre inline-six engine and the driving pleasure that made the Austin-Healey name famous around the world.

Built between May 18th and May 20th, 1965, and dispatched to New York on June 3rd, 1965, this car is accompanied by its official British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate confirming its identity and original factory specification.
