Car to be at auction 11/24

www.handh.co.uk/auction/lot/lot-5---1966-austin-healey-3000-mkiii-phase-2/

Auction description:

27th Nov, 2024 13:00

Pavilion Gardens | Buxton, Derbyshire

Lot 5

1966 Austin-Healey 3000 MkIII Phase 2

Registration No: Unregistered

Chassis No: HBJ8/32826

MOT: Exempt

An exciting restoration project supplied with an abundance of parts

Right hand drive, overdrive specification

Understood to have only completed 20,000 miles before being taken off the road during the 1970s

Understood to have been built during 1966 and one of a batch of right-hand drive cars that was exported to Hong Kong when new, chassis HBJ8/32862 is said to have been involved in an accident early on in its life during the 1970s and has remained off the road since. Acquired by Mr G. Lucas MBE and re-imported to the UK during this period, the Healey was to be the retirement project of Mr Lucas and was kept in dry storage after a strip down. Sadly, Mr Lucas has suffered from a decline in his health which has resulted in the project now needing to be sold.

Upon inspection, we noted that the body is in need of total restoration, but does come with a large number of its original or replacement panels. The original Red vinyl interior is also believed to be mostly present along with much chrome trim including front and rear bumpers. The shell will roll, but many of the spare parts are supplied in accompanying crates or loosely. The power unit is provided on a cradle and is supplied with the cylinder head, rocker cover and rockers, and the power unit appears largely corrosion free.

All interested parties should be aware that no history file is available to accompany the car, so it is the purchasers' responsibility to register it with the DVLA for UK use. The original, BMC supplied chassis tag is also included to aid the purchaser.

Sold for £5,175

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
