Listing this Austin Healey 3000 Mark III.
See all 278 photos below this description and the video before bidding.
This was found sitting for some time. After I poored some gas into the tank, and hooked up a external battery, the fuel pump came on and the car fired up for a second, see the video of me doing this in the auction. I will still be listed as a non-running project. It does roll and steer easily when pushed. The previous owner was starting to take it apart to do a light restoration and did take out the engine to fix one of the freeze plugs, they put the motor back in it and then never got to finish putting it all back together. I went ahead and lightly put most of the parts back on to show whats all there, but there are parts missing or need to be put on better, see all 278 photos below. According to the Heritage Certificate this has a matching, vin, engine, body number, and rear end number, see photos. Also according to the Heritage Certificate, this originally came with overdrive which you can see the switch on the dash for it, but I do not know how to check the transmission to see if its still there, see photos. I did provide in the 278 photos below of all of the factory numbers I could find. I never put in coolant or brake fuild, and I never tested the brakes, trans or clutch. The trunk does not lock down. There is a clean title I was given for it. The car does look beautiful but its not perfect, so there are areas of paint chips, runs, blemishes, yellowing, dents, dings, and there are areas of rust, bondo, and fiberglass, see the 278 photos below. I am sure things will need rebuilt or replaced. It is being listed as a non-running project, see all 278 photos below this description, as
parts may need cleaned, fixed, restored, fully built, and or replaced, and there are, nicks, blemishes, rust, pits, scratches, stains, etc., look at all 278 photos below! Please no 0% feedbackers, unless you contact me before bidding. There are
278 extra pictures below this description and a video, so we will let them do the talking, but please ask all questions before bidding.
