About 90% were sold new in the northern United States. This example concerns the most desirable version: a MkIIA 2 + 2 with swing-down side windows, easy to operate hood, én beautiful classic dashboard (as opposed to the MkIII with more modern dashboard). The soft top, like the rest of the car, is in nice condition. After driving in the United States, the car was fully restored in recent years in the Netherlands and then registered on Dutch registration in 2021.The car is therefore in nice condition. The engine has been replaced by an equivalent: this engine block with 2 carburetors is a work of art to see. The interior with beautiful red leather upholstery is equipped with a heater and mass switch. The execution is beautiful with chrome wire wheels and the two-tone color combination of black on red which perfectly highlights the beautiful lines of the car. This graceful color combination is also often seen on classic Bugattis. It is a pleasure to drive the car: the deep sound of the powerful 6-cylinder engine, the fine gearbox with optional overdrive, powerful brakes (for that time advanced front disc brakes) and a low center of gravity which provides an ultimate cornering experience. In short: unëvenised purity of an iconic English roadster from the 1960s ready for its new owner.The Healey has been recently restored and the engine has been overhauled. The engine currently still has high crankcase pressure and needs to be run in. After about 1000km the fluids need to be changed and technically completely checked.Some minor work is required such as installing push buttons for the cover etc.General information about the Austin-Healey 3000The Austin-Healey 3000 came on the market in 1959 and was produced through 1967.
