This Austin-Healey has been under long-term ownership and retains many of the features enthusiasts look for in a BJ8. Power comes from a 2,912cc inline 6-cylinder engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission with overdrive and fed by dual SU carburetors. Front-wheel disc brakes provide improved stopping capability, while the car rides on 15-inch 60-spoke wire wheels fitted with two-eared knock-off hubs and vintage Phillips 66 tires.

Exterior details include chrome bumpers with overriders, chrome trim, an oval chrome grille, 3000 Mk III badging, a black convertible soft top, and dual fender-mounted rearview mirrors. Inside, the cabin features forward-folding front seats, manual-crank windows, a padded armrest, toggle switches, Smiths instrumentation, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, and the signature walnut veneer wood dashboard. The combination of simple controls, analog gauges, and an open top reflects the straightforward character of British sports cars from the era.

This Big Healey has been off the road for more than three decades and is currently offered with a running engine. It will require recommissioning and additional work before being considered road ready, making it a good opportunity for revival.
