ONE OF BRITAIN'S FINEST POSTWAR SPORTS CARS
Debuted at the 1952 London Motor Show, Donald Healey's ''Hundred'' gained immediate acclaim for its proven Austin/BMC-sourced mechanicals, sleek envelope-type bodywork, and electrifying performance. Competition use and success on the international stage were immediate, including some of the most punishing long-distance rallies and fabled endurance races of the era. Development was relentless, with a succession of updates resulting in the definitive, 6-cylinder Austin-Healey 100/6 by 1956. Uprated with a new 3.0-liter powerplant for 1959 and a name change to the 'Austin-Healey 3000 Mk I,' this design continued with steady refinements through 1967. Today, while all variations are highly collectible and enjoyable, early examples of the Austin-Healey 3000 Mk I are particularly coveted for their purity, incomparable open-air experience and ''first of line'' status.
One of only 947 left-hand drive BN7 two-seaters produced, this extremely attractive 1961 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk I roadster was completed on June 10, 1960 and dispatched six days later to Dusseldorf, Germany, where it was purchased new by a USAF Wing Commander serving with the Strategic Air Command in Germany. Upon his return Stateside, the original owner had the Healey airfreighted home via a C-47 transport. According to the late Healey expert, Tom Rocke, of riverside, California, who recently acquired and restored the vehicle, it remained with the original owner's family for some 40 years before it was eventually found by Mr. Rocke in a barn in Fairfield, California.
A total restoration was subsequently performed by Mr. Rocke at his Healey Lane shop in riverside, California, with the body fully prepped and then handsomely refinished in black over Cool Vanilla, complemented by a new soft top and tonneau cover, plus new side curtains and a storage bag for them. The original, matching numbers engine was rebuilt, as was the 4-speed manual gearbox. All mechanical systems were new or rebuilt items and the instruments were rebuilt, calibrated, and certified by the experts at palo Alto Speedometer.
