Introducing this 1965 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ8 Mk III Convertible Sports Car finished in Colorado Red over a black interior. As a late Phase II BJ8, this example represents the final evolution of the Big Healey, a model known for combining British sports car performance with more refined touring characteristics. The Phase II cars received revisions to the chassis that improved exhaust clearance, along with separate indicator lights and the distinctive walnut veneer dashboard that became a hallmark of the BJ8 series.
Highlights:
- Long-Term Ownership
- Exterior Color: Colorado Red
- 2,912cc Inline 6-Cylinder Engine
- 4-Speed Manual Transmission w/ Overdrive
- SU Dual Carburetors
- Front Wheel Disc Brakes
- Black Convertible Soft Top
- "3000 Mk III" Badging
- Smiths Instrumentation
- Walnut Veneer Wood Dashboard
- Toggle Switches
- 15-Inch 60-Spoke Wire Wheels
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. Contact us today for more information on this late Phase II BJ8 and the chance to own one of Austin-Healey's most recognized models. For $26,500
