MotoeXotica is pleased to announce our latest British classic, gorgeous nut and bolt restored 1965 Austin Healey BJ8. Commonly referred to as the “Big Healey” the 3000 MK III was the company’s greatest success, ue to its performance, andling, nd luxurious interior. With the MK III being last of the Austin Healey breed it became the most powerful and luxurious of all the Healey’s, hus cars are the most sought after Healey’s. Production of the MK III is divided into two Phases of production, ith Phase II starting in May of 1964. The most significant change between the Phases’ was a modified rear chassis to improve ground clearance by almost an inch.

This wonderfully restored BJ8 is painted in Carman Red; the paint is in great condition imperfections are far-and-few between. The owner and restorer spent countless hours and dollars fully restoring the car, ocumenting the entire process with photos and receipts. The car was purchased in 1999 out of long term storage. We have photos of the car from the day it was purchased. It was restored from 2000 to 2002 and has traveled 11,365 miles since the completion; the odometer was reset to zero at the time of the completion.
