Price:*$66,000.00
Year: 1967

VIN:HBJ8U42563G

Summary:
Rare color of metallic Golden Beige. There were 553 MKIII's painted in this color. Sold new in California and has less than 68,000 original miles.



Details:

This Healey had a body-off rotisserie restoration in 1994 and only had 28,000 original miles. The engine had a major rebuild in 1997 due to an oil consumption problem. The engine rebuild included a hotter RV cam, ported and polished cylinder head and a lightened flywheel. This Healey has been used in Austin-Healey Club events and now has less than 68,000 original miles on it. This is a rust-free and accident-free car and retains all the original sheet metal and with the exception of the carpet and dash, the interior is all original. This is a great driving Healey and this color is one of the best. Over 17,000 MKIII's were built and only 463 were built after this one.

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?
