Car offered at:
Aventura Motors
625 County Road 39A
Southampton, NY 11968

Seller's description:
Offered for sale is a 1967 Austin Healey 3000 MKIII. This example, chassis number HBJ8L39169, was built in November of 1966 and dispatched February of 1967 as a personal export delivery to the United States.

British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate
Restored by BRC of Philadelphia (formally BMC of Philadelphia) with over 500 Austin-Healey restorations to date.
Finished from the factory in Healey Blue with white coves over a blue interior and presents as such today.
Matching-numbers engine, 29KRUH13856.
All chrome has been redone to concours standards showing a consistent finish throughout.
The windshield, bumpers, cockpit surround, door handles, wire wheels, chrome trim, and all bezels are excellent.
All of the shut gaps are even and consistent.
Each panel is laser straight with no noticeable dents or dings.
The glass has been replaced including windshield and driver/passenger door windows in perfect condition showing no scratches or chips.
The soft convertible fits well, and is tight.
The rear window also remains fade-free and brand new.
Headlights, tail lights, and turn signal lights are all new and correct.
The interior is also fully tended to with leather trimmed seats and door panels with new carpeting, dash top, and refinished burled wood trim dash.
All gauges work properly and have been refinished.
Mechanically, every component has been rebuilt and restored with concours standards in mind.
The engine bay is colored/coated as the factory did when new.
Smooth power delivery with quick throttle response and an excellent, gruff exhaust note. Thanks to a fully built engine by Bitner Automotive with 50 years of experience, this Healey produces about 192 horsepower with dyno sheets to match.
Shifting into 5th gear at highway speeds also allows the car those much need RPM’s for comfortable cruising as opposed to the short geared original 4-speed box.
All rubber hoses, lines etc. are new with no known leaks.
The clutch is also new and operates, as it should.
The brakes are new and applying them is effective while keeping the car straight.

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?
