For Sale 1966 3000 Healey Blue BJ8

[Al T]

This is a really nice, solid BJ8. Approximately 40,000 miles on the odometer which the previous owner thinks could be correct. He spent $25,000 on it during his 3 years of ownership. The drivetrain is all numbers matching and is documented by the cars historical documentation from the British Motor History Heritage Trust. Everything works on the car including the overdrive and trafficator. The car is an original Healey Blue car and the paint has been ceramic coated.
To list some of the items recently done/purchased

• New chromed 72 spoke wire wheels and tires (original painted wires with good tires included)
• New Convertible top (not installed) and boot. There's really nothing wrong with the existing top
• The dual carbs rebuilt by his retired English mechanic
• Ignition changed over to electronic ignition adding a more powerful coil to run it as well
• Most of the switches and gauges were replaced
• New headlight harnesses and he fixed all the lights.
• New in-tank gas pump and filters and numerous other small parts
• New replica radio from American Sound.
• The original radio is included and nearly all old parts in a box to go with the car.
• He had his mechanic pull the engine and replace the rear main with a kit he'd bought from England through the Farm the Healey supplier in Ontario. That was the most expensive repair on the engine
• All new door and top weathersripping (to be installed) from Moss Motors comes with the car.
• Car cover
• Factory service manual

This was a bucket list car, and I love driving it, but will be moving south and have a couple of other cars I'll be taking. I purchased it out of the BC Lower Mainland (Vancouver) where it spent its entire life. I've owned it a year, and it passed the Alberta out of province inspection last fall with flying colors.

Did you sell your 3000?

I did. Just before Christmas.

What was the story with the separate front blinker and side lights, it looks like the standard German export issue lights?
