1964 BJ8 Austin Healey 3000Extensive Recent Service We have available a nice driver level 1964 BJ8 Austin Healey 3000 VIN# HBJ8L26815. This car underwent a comprehensive frame up restoration 25 years ago and has been driven very sparingly since. It has a very solid chassis and excellent mechanicals. The car has undergone a thorough mechanical inspection to make the car long distance worthy. Attention was paid to be sure it would function as close to new as possible and included complete service and tune up. total rebuild or replacement of all brake and clutch hydraulics. The overdrive was rebuilt and the uprated rear crankshaft seal was fitted. This recent work was extensive and done in our shop at a cost in excess of $10. 00. So you can be confident that this car is mechanically and electrically well sorted. The all important chassis is in excellent condition and has no signs of major damage nor major rust repair. It is the later phase two chassis so has a bit more ground clearance. All body panels are good and while fit is not perfect it is certainly better than an average Healey. The car drives very solid. tracks true. and stops well. The gearbox is good and quiet in wear prone first gear. It shifts smoothly. The overdrive being freshly rebuilt engages firmly and operates as it should providing lower and quieter cruising rpms. The entire interior was redone in original patterns and materials. Paint is very good showing only minor rock chips and slight age flaws. The car has always been stored inside since restoration and is attractive in the dark racing green. Chrome is a combination of new and original. The painted wire wheels were purchased new at time of restoration and they are still as new. This is one of the more reasonably priced BJ8’s on the market and can be purchased for less than current restoration costs of a big Healey.
