Successively upgraded, it received six-cylinder power in 1956, but it was the three-liter 3000 Mark III of 1964-1968 that became the archetypal “Big Healey.” Completed on March 18th 1964 and dispatched from the works eight days later, this 3000 Mark III convertible was built to left-hand drive North American specification. Options included the adjustable steering column, black tonneau cover, a heater, electric overdrive, road speed tires, laminated windscreen and a miles per hour speedometer. A former owner had it restored in a ground up restoration by British Motor Corporation of Pennsylvania. The mileage shows 7799, which are miles since the restoration. The car is immaculate, inside and out. It is as clean underneath as on top, and the engine compartment is sanitary and well detailed.

It is offered with a Heritage Certificate verifying that it is numbers matching. The car comes with all tools, top cover, tonneau and full covers, as well as a picture booklet showing the restoration process. Big Healeys are addictive.
