1962 Austin Healey 3000 Classic Roadsters Sebring MX Replica

1989 Austin Healey 3000 Replica

This car is a near replica of an early 60's Austin Healey, sort of a combination of the 100 and 3000 series cars but with widely flared fenders to accommodate larger tires and wheels. It was produced from a kit by Classic Roadsters, purchased in 1990. The MX version was the high performance model, less true to the original cars than the other models offered. This car spent many years in climate controlled storage and has only 2,500 original miles !! The car is very light, weighs approximately 2300 pounds.

This car is CA smog legal with only a simple PCV valve; a '65 327 cid V8 Chevrolet block is the basis for the engine. It uses CA smog legal parts to improve performance.Engine modifications were professionallyperformed at Marin Speed & Machine in Marin County, CA (all documented) and include:

The car has never been "completed" in the sense that it was meant to be driven in SoCal in nice weather and be kept as light as possible; sale includes numerous new parts to complete it if desired. These include a brand new soft top and supports, rollup windows (crank mechanisms, glass and trim), optional fiberglass hardtop kit, center console, chrome fender mount racing mirrors, chrome windshield trim. Also included is a custom car cover, the original assembly manual and factory promotional materials.

As is, with a little work and a roll bar, this would make a great track day car.
