1963 Austin Healey 3000 Convertible – One Family From New
This 1963 Austin Healey 3000 Convertible is a rare opportunity to acquire a one-family-owned example of one of the most iconic British roadsters of the 1960s. Showing just 79,413 miles from new, the car is finished in ivory paint over red leather and retains its 4-speed manual transmission with factory overdrive.
History & Ownership
Delivered new in 1963, this Healey has remained with the same family since day one. Carefully enjoyed and maintained over the decades, it has been kept largely original aside from one older repaint, which was not of the highest quality and now shows imperfections in the rear quarter.
Condition
Exterior: The car presents as a solid driver, with paint showing age and cosmetic flaws, offering the next owner a choice between enjoying as-is or restoring to a higher level.
Interior: The red leather cabin shows an appealing patina that speaks to its originality and long-term care.
Mechanical: The car runs and drives, with the torquey inline-six delivering the spirited performance these cars are famous for. A few minor items will need attention before the car is returned to regular road use.
