Vehicle Details

Beautifully original BJ8 in excellent condition, lookin’ good in its original red and accented with flashy chrome 60-spoke wire wheels. Out of a twenty-year ownership, during which it had respectful detailing touchups done to bring the engine bay to show level authenticity while the black leather seats are still original.

Improvements over the years included new carpeting, replacing the wood veneer dash panels with OEM new ones, door cards and new bumpers & overriders. It was fitted with a full stainless-steel OEM-style exhaust system and just recently had the carbs rebuilt.

The car runs great—even the overdrive works!—and is great fun to drive. Unlike many period British sports cars, the Mk III has roll-up glass windows for real convenience. It was repainted in its original red over twenty years ago and the finish still looks great—and no rust has ever been found in the car.

Many of these roadsters had well-meaning, but amateur maintenance and ‘restoration’ over the years, so one that looks like it just drove out of the late 1960s is a rare treat. Big Healeys enjoyed a market run-up a few years ago, but now have settled in a very attractive price point, with long term appreciation quite likely.
