This 1961 Austin-Healey 3000 BT7 is finished in green over black and powered by a 2.9-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Equipment includes 15″ knock-off wheels, fender-mounted mirrors, a chrome luggage rack, a banjo-style steering wheel, and lap belts. This car was reportedly refurbished in the 1970s and acquired by the current owner in 2012. This Austin-Healey is now offered by the seller on behalf of the owner with a removable soft top and side curtains, a split tonneau cover, and a clean California title.

The body was refinished in green during previous ownership. Equipment includes fender-mounted mirrors, a chrome luggage rack, and twin exhaust tips. A split tonneau cover is included in the sale along with a removable black soft top and side curtains.

15″ knock-off wire wheels are mounted with 185/65 Kumho Sense tires. Stopping power is provided by front disc brakes and rear drums.

The interior features bucket seats trimmed in black upholstery with white piping as well as color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Equipment includes a heater, front and rear lap belts, a passenger grab bar, and a fire extinguisher.

The banjo-style steering wheel sits ahead of a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 28k miles, approximately 3,500 of which were added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The 2.9-liter inline-six is equipped with dual carburetors and drives the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
