Austin-Healey 3000 Mark I BN7 1959
General description :
The early 1960s could quite possibly be considered the dawn of performance roadsters. Of course, hardcore racers had always whipped fire-breathing drop-tops around various tracks. But the majority of America's '50s convertibles were big, luxurious, cushy and way too civilized to take serious turns. That's why cars like this spry Austin-Healy 3000 gradually redefined how the domestic market interpreted open-air motoring. Small, tossable and extremely fun right out of the box, this fully documented Mark I is a virtually spotless classic that, over the course of two years, was fully stripped and rotisserie restored by premier marque specialists Fourintune Garage. One of only 1,691 BN7 roadsters produced, the car is innately exclusive. And, if you're looking for a first-class Austin that's also a blast to drive, it's the 'big Healey' of your dreams!

About Austin-Healey
Austin-Healey was a British sports car make created as a joint-venture between the Austin division of the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and the Donald Healey Motor Company. First Healey model, Healey 100, was based on Austin A90 Atlantic mechanicals and developed by Donald Healey to be build in-house. They finished a single Healey Hundred for the 1952 London Motor Show. Leonard Lord, managing director of Austin was so impressed by the design that a deal was duly struck with Healey and the car was renamed the Austin-Healey 100 overnight. Austin Healey was born. 100 derived into 100-six, and different 3000 versions before they quit the production in 1968 as the basic design had finally become obsolete.
