With the meteoric rise in Austin Healey 3000 values, especially the later BJ8 cars with improved rear suspension and more luxurious interior, finding a barn find example seems to be harder and harder. This one has been found already (the picture above shows it being brought out of it’s long-term storage) and it has been evaluated by a seemingly knowledgeable seller who is willing to share that information. The car is located in Elkhart, Indiana and is for sale here on eBay with a buy-it-now of $25,900 but bidding is much lower than that. The seller has included a ton of close up pictures as well as a frank evaluation of what will be necessary to restore this car, but also suggests that a much smaller level of work would be required to just make it a fun driver. I’ve owned two Big Healeys and it is a unique driving experience–the whole lusty engine thing and somewhat primitive handling in stock form make every trip an adventure!
