Vehicle Detail

You are bidding on a 1960 Austin-Healey 3000 2+2 BT7 with the rare “works” (factory) hardtop. I’ve owned this car since 1973. In the early ‘80’s it was involved in a minor parking lot accident resulting in damage to the front shroud and grille. The attached picture of the damaged shroud (which doesn’t go with the car) and grille (which does go with the car) show the minor damage sustained. I believe the grill can be straightened by any good chrome shop. I started preparation for a complete repaint of the car using a nearly perfect shroud from a donor car, but lost interest in completing it. The car has been in dry storage since 1981 and I need to sell it to free up space for another project. This car is 98% complete and the engine was “pickled” with fogging oil when stored. It hasn’t been started since the early ‘80’s but the engine is not seized. It’s a good candidate for a complete restoration, or it could be cosmetically restored and driven very reasonably. Floors and trunk are rusted and probably need to be replaced. The original fenders and rocker panels were replaced with fiberglass parts from Perfect Plastics in the mid ‘70’s because new steel parts were not available at that time. Of course, if a complete restoration is undertaken, these parts can be replaced with the steel reproductions now available and the fiberglass parts should be easily sold.
