1965 Austin-Healey 3000 Mark 3

For sale is an exceptional Austin Healey 3000 BJ8 Mk3, the final and most refined version of the legendary “Big Healey”.

This example has undergone a complete body-off restoration carried out to an exceptionally high standard, with meticulous attention to detail and originality. The body was stripped to bare metal and rebuilt throughout, with the chassis, bodywork, mechanicals, and interior restored from the ground up.

Finished in the highly desirable Ice Blue and Old English White colour combination with a completely new blue leather interior, mohair soft top, and tonneau cover.

The engine, gearbox, overdrive, differential, carburettors, electrical system, and all ancillary components have been fully rebuilt. Upgraded valve stem seals and a modern rear crankshaft lip-seal conversion have been fitted for improved reliability and reduced oil consumption.

Additional competition-inspired bonnet and wing vents improve engine bay cooling while maintaining a period-correct appearance. The car is fitted with 72-spoke wire wheels and wider Vredestein tyres for improved stability and driving performance.

I have a deep passion for classic car restoration—both professionally and privately. This Austin was rebuilt with exceptional attention to detail and a strong focus on authenticity, quality, and long-term durability.

This is the fifth Austin Healey built by us to the same proven specification, reflecting both experience and a consistent restoration standard.

Over the years,

I have specialized in classic cars and know these models inside out.

The car is equally well suited for a serious collector as well as for an investor looking for a high-quality, properly restored example. At the same time, it offers an excellent driving experience—fully rebuilt and sorted, it is reliable, comfortable, and ready for long-distance touring without compromise.

The car has not yet been driven after the restoration. It is currently in the process of registration and will undergo approximately 100 km of road testing to ensure everything is fully checked, properly adjusted, and operating as intended.

This final stage of preparation guarantees that the car will be completely sorted and ready for delivery to any destination in Europe—or worldwide if required.
