1960 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk I BT7 - Classic British 2+2 Roadster This beautifully presented 1960 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk I BT7 represents the first iteration of the renowned "Big Healey" 3000 series - a cornerstone of British sports car history. Built in October 1959, this example was born with a black exterior, red trim, and black top, and today wears a striking green-over-white finish from its 1991-1992 restoration. The BT7 features the desirable 2+2 seating configuration, offering both authentic roadster feel and additional practicality. It's equipped with wire wheels, an adjustable steering column, overdrive, and a heater - thoughtful touches that make this Healey equally suited for weekend touring or vintage motoring events. Mechanical Specifications: • Engine: 2912 cc inline-6 producing 124 hp • Transmission: 4-speed manual with overdrive • Front Brakes: Girling discs • Rear Brakes: Drums • Chassis: Steel ladder frame with steel body and aluminum panels • Front Suspension: Double wishbones with coil springs, shock absorber, and stabilizer bar • Rear Suspension: Solid axle with semi-elliptic leaf springs and hydraulic shock absorbers This BT7 performs beautifully, delivering the strong mid-range torque, smooth shifting, and spirited exhaust note that made the 3000 famous among enthusiasts. A fine example of early-1960s British sports engineering, this Healey captures the era's perfect blend of performance and style. Restored, well-optioned, and tastefully finished, it's a wonderful addition to any classic car collection.
