This 1963 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ7 Mk II is a 2+2 convertible finished in white over a black interior and is powered by a 2.9-liter inline-six mated with a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. It is said to have spent much of its life in the Pacific Northwest and was acquired by its current owner in 1986. Equipment includes a black soft top, dual SU carburetors, chrome bumpers with overriders, and knock-off wire wheels.
The car is finished in white with a black vinyl soft top and features chrome bumpers with overriders, twin exhaust outlets, and chrome window trim. The seller notes dings and scratches in the paint in addition to rust bubbling on the rocker panels.
Wire spoke 15” wheels wear two-eared knock-off spinners and are mounted with 165/80 Nexen SB802 tires. The braking system utilizes front discs and rear drums.
The 2+2 interior features seats upholstered in black vinyl with white piping along with matching door panels and carpeting. Appointments include lap belts, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, a central ash tray, and a heater.
A three-spoke steering wheel with a lace-up cover fronts Smiths instrumentation consisting of a 120-mph speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer, and gauges that display readouts for oil pressure, water temperature, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 71k miles.
The 2.9-liter inline-six is equipped with dual SU carburetors and was factory-rated at 134 horsepower with 167 lb-ft of torque when new. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual gearbox with electronic overdrive.
