The Final and Most Comfortable “Big Healey” – The 1966 Austin-Healey 3000 Mark III BJ8 Convertible
You can hardly go wrong with a Healey if you want to experience the pure driving pleasure of a bygone era. Few cars of its time put you so close to the road, the mechanics, and nature itself. British roadsters have always been known for being simple, fast, and agile, and the Austin-Healey embodies this raw and authentic character perfectly. The marque also enjoyed considerable success at Le Mans and in numerous rallies, where near-production cars were driven over challenging Alpine passes and across long-distance stages.
Among other improvements, the Healey received a completely new soft top, as the restoration had originally been completed with only a cream-coloured hardtop fitted, which is nevertheless included with the vehicle. The current owner also replaced the five-speed gearbox installed in 2012 with a rebuilt overdrive transmission of the type originally fitted, restoring the car to a more authentic specification.
The result is a Healey perfectly suited to both short and extended touring, including Alpine passes and longer-distance journeys. The car is offered with a valid Swiss Veteran MFK, with its next regular inspection not due for another three years.
