Austin Healey 3000 MKII - Rally, year 1961.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

GENERAL

Very nice, body-off restored Austin Healey 3000 MKII, truly in very beautiful condition.
This is a classic that has been restored in every detail with an eye for originality and quality. Thanks to a complete overhaul of both mechanicals and bodywork, this Healey is in top condition and ready for immediate use or exhibition.

BODYWORK & PAINTWORK

The body was completely dismantled during the restoration and is body-off restored. All parts have been carefully treated, repainted, and professionally reassembled. The panel gaps, the quality of the paintwork and the finish are of a very high standard. The car presents itself as very beautiful with a glossy finish and an immaculate underside.

TECHNICAL

Under the hood lies the water-cooled inline six-cylinder engine with a displacement of 2912 cc, delivering 131 hp. The engine is fully rebuilt and equipped with two SU HS4 carburetors, in accordance with the original specifications.
Mechanically, the car is in absolute top condition – the engine is, simply put, like new. The Healey is also equipped with an overdrive for comfortable driving at higher speeds.
Additionally the car is fitted with rally equipment, which makes it not only sporty to look at but also more functional for fans of classic motoring.

INTERIOR

The interior was totally renewed during the restoration. All upholstery, carpets and finishes are in very good condition. The seats offer excellent comfort, the dashboard and controls look as new. Everything is aligned with the original MKII specifications.

DOCUMENTS

The car comes with a complete photo book of the restoration and engine rebuild, documenting the work performed in full. In addition, there is a folder with all accompanying documents — from start to finish.

PICK-UP

The Austin Healey 3000 MKII is available for viewing in Leeuwarden, Netherlands. Viewing by appointment is possible.

OTHER INFORMATION

This Austin Healey 3000 MKII is an exceptionally beautiful example, restored and mechanically rebuilt from the ground up.
A unique opportunity for the collector or enthusiast seeking an authentically restored, fully documented Healey in very good condition.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
