The 3000 sports convertible Mark III was announced in February 1964 with power increased from 136 bhp to 150 bhp by a new higher lift camshaft. SU HD8 carburettors replaced HS6 units increasing the choke size from 1.75 to 2 inches, or total area 6.3 sq. inches, increasing by 30.6%. Power-assisted braking became standard instead of optional. The new car's fascia displayed its speedometer and tachometer directly in front of the driver. Upholstery was now in Ambla vinyl[7]
The Mark III BJ8 remained in production until the end of 1967 when manufacture of the Austin-Healey 3000 ceased
We are proud to offer this magnificent 1966 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ8 finished in white with gold coves and black interior. This car has been totally restored and presents itself well. Options include dual sport mirrors, chrome wire wheels, radio, heater and full tonneau cover. These cars have been climbing in value the last few years. Great opportunity to get a big Healey at a reasonable price!
