Classic Car Auctions says:
A delightful example of an early 3000, correctly presented...
The BT7 featured front disc brakes, wire wheels as standard and a more powerful engine
This left-hand drive example was initially supplied to the US but returned to the UK in 1991
Restored in the States and has recently been repainted to a very high standard in its original colours
Classically finished in Old English White over black with a matching factory hardtop
The 2+2 black leather interior sports a wood rim wheel and remains pleasingly standard
Fitted with the 124bhp, 2,912cc BMC C-Series engine and a four-speed gearbox with overdrive
We understand it took part in the 2000 Monte Carlo Classic Historique Rally, starting from Oslo
Supplied with a partial history file containing some older documentation
With its gleaming paintwork, chrome wire wheels and tidy engine bay, this is a super 'Big Healey'
Very sensibly guided, this classic Healey would make a wonderful European touring companion
