1967 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ8 Mk III

This 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ8 Mk III was built in April 1966 and originally delivered to Chicago, Illinois. Power is supplied by a 2. 9-liter inline-six mated to a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Replacement chrome-finished 15? wire wheels with knock-off hubs are wrapped in 175/80 BFGoodrich Touring T/A tires. The front brakes are fitted with dual-piston calipers and cross-drilled rotors. The 2+2 interior was originally trimmed in black according to the BMIHT certificate, and it was reupholstered in red leather with matching door cards and carpeting during the refurbishment. Additional amenities include a wooden shift knob, roll-up windows, and an AM radio. A Moto-Lita wood-rimmed steering wheel fronts factory instrumentation including a 140-mph speedometer, a rebuilt 7k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The 2. 9-liter inline-six is equipped with dual SU carburetors; a “29E” tag on the engine indicates that it was originally fitted to a BN7 or BT7 Austin-Healey built in 1961 or 1962.
