This is a 1964 Austin Healey Mk3 BJ8. The car is finished in light metallic blue over white with blue leather interior. This matching numbers BJ8 was supplied new to New York and has just returned to the UK, and is now UK registered. The car retains its original engine and is fitted with overdrive.

The vendor states that the car presents in nice condition, and is running and driving, showing good oil pressure. The gearbox has a slight whine in first gear, but changes well and has a good working overdrive. In recent times the car has received work to the front chassis and a new floor pan on the off side. Overall the paint work is good with no visible corrosion and no major marks.

This Healey has recently returned from the USA, and therefore will require a thorough going over before being taken onto the road for use. A great opportunity to purchase a very competitively estimated big Healey.
