This 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ8 Mk III was acquired by the seller in 1993 and was reportedly refurbished in the early 2000s by Healey Werks of Lawton, Iowa. The car is finished in blue and white over blue leather and is powered by a 2.9-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Features include chrome bumpers with overriders, 15″ knock-off wire wheels, a blue soft top, an AM radio, and a trunk-mounted Alpine stereo with a CD changer. The seller states that the speedometer and fuel gauge were rebuilt in 2017 and that the battery was replaced in 2021.
The body is finished in metallic blue over white, and features include chrome bumpers with overriders, fender-mounted rearview mirrors, and a blue soft top. Stone chips are noted on the hood, below the left door, and on the left quarter panel.
Chrome 15″ knock-off wire wheels wear 165-series Michelin XZX tires. Braking is handled by front discs and rear drums, and the fluid was flushed in 2017.
The interior features blue leather seats with matching door panels and carpeting. The dashboard is accented with burl wood panels, and additional equipment includes a heater, dash-mounted rearview mirror, banjo-style steering wheel, lap belts, and a trunk-mounted Alpine stereo with a CD changer.
Smiths instrumentation consists of a 140-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 49k miles.
The 2.9-liter inline-six is equipped with twin SU carburetors and sends power to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Service carried out in 2017 includes replacing the points and spark plugs, adjusting the valves and carburetors, and changing the engine oil, coolant, differential oil, and clutch hydraulic oil.
