1962 Austin-Healey 3000 BT7 Mk II

This 1962 Austin-Healey 3000 BT7 Mk II was purchased new in May 1962 from Agence Française Austin in Paris, France, by the seller’s father, who at the time was stationed in Europe with the United States Army. The car was shipped to New York in September 1962 and driven to Oregon, and later that year it was shipped from Seattle, Washington, to Anchorage, Alaska. After limited use in Alaska, the Healey was shipped back to Washington state in 1966, and it was used infrequently and stored in the Pacific Northwest until being recommissioned around 2000. The vehicle was repainted in Healey Blue in the 1990s, and the interior is trimmed in black leather. Three SU carburetors feed the 2.9-liter inline-six, which is paired with a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. The seller acquired the Healey in 2010. Work performed between May 2024 and February 2026 has involved overhauling the cooling, ignition, braking, and suspension systems as well as rebuilding the carburetors and the speedometer, installing seatbelts, and replacing the 15″ wire wheels, tires, fuel tank, and clutch. This BT7 is now offered with a removable hardtop, side curtains, and a luggage rack as well as 1962 purchase paperwork, manufacturer’s literature, a workshop manual, service records since 2024, spare parts including a set of wheels, and a Washington title in the seller’s name. The seller’s father ordered the Austin-Healey in April 1962. The document above shows that the vehicle would be blue and would come with a hardtop. A number of papers from 1962 detail the car’s delivery and eventual shipment to the United States, as shown in the photo gallery below.
