Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1965 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ8 Mk III, owned for 37 years, boasts a refurbished engine and a relatively recent convertible top. Despite recent work, it needs new wheels due to damage and has an inoperative tachometer, placing it in good, but not excellent, condition for a classic.
Condition
6
The car has undergone refurbishment in 1996 and 2022, with the engine being overhauled in 2022 and the black convertible top installed in 2020. However, a June 2024 service invoice notes that all four wheels are bent and need to be replaced, and a spare wheel with a broken spoke is included. The tachometer is inoperative. These issues indicate it's in 'Good' condition, requiring some reconditioning.
