AutoHunter Spotlight: 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 Mark III

Featured on AutoHunter, the online auction platform driven by ClassicCars.com, is this one-owner 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 Mark III. Power comes from a rebuilt 3.0-liter inline-six paired to a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Features include power front disc brakes, rebuilt dual carburetors, bucket seats, and upgraded Blaupunkt AM/FM/cassette stereo. Finished in light blue metallic with a dark blue convertible top and vinyl interior, this Austin-Healey comes with a top boot, original metal service plate, jack and jack handle, lead hammer, tonneau cover, service and restoration records, and clear title.

During a 1997 frame-off restoration performed by Garland Gentry of the Classic Car Center in Fredericksburg, Virginia, the exterior was repainted in the original Healey Blue metallic. Features include headlight stone guards, dual mirrors, and manual folding dark blue convertible top.

A set of chrome 15-inch knock-off wire wheels is wrapped in Dunlop and Michelin tires.

The front bucket seats and the rear seats are upholstered in dark blue vinyl. Features include manual steering, center console-mounted manual transmission shifter, three-spoke steering wheel with wood rim, dark blue vinyl trim, Blaupunkt AM/FM/cassette stereo, and woodgrain dashboard trim.

The gauge cluster includes a Smiths 140-mph speedometer, 7,000-rpm tachometer, and readouts for the fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The odometer reads 75,375 miles, which is documented.

Power is provided by a rebuilt 150-horsepower 3.0-liter inline-six backed by a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. The dual SU HD8 carburetors were rebuilt during the car’s restoration.

This Austin-Healey was factory-equipped with an independent front suspension and solid rear-drive axle. Braking is provided by power front discs and rear drums. Dual exhausts exit at the rear.
