Please, note that this was a complete frame off, nut and bolt restoration, which took almost 18 years to finish correctly. Absolutely no expense or time was spared.
We truly believe this might be the best restored 3000 BJ8 in the world. Fact is, we have never seen a nicer Austin-Healey than this one in over 20 years on the show circuit.

This stunning automobile has less than 150 careful miles on it since the restoration was finished and can truly be called "fully sorted."

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
