This 1963 Austin-Healey 3000 BJ7 Mk II was dispatched new to Canada in November 1963, and in 2017 an Alberta resident purchased the car and commenced a seven-year refurbishment that cost more than $215k CAD for the car and components. A replacement chassis from Kilmartin Automotive Sheetmetal underpins the vehicle, which was repainted in Healey Blue and Ivory White over retrimmed blue leather upholstery. A five-speed manual transmission sourced from a 1985 Toyota Supra is mated to the 2.9-liter inline-six engine, featuring aluminum cylinder head and dual SU HD8 carburetors. The car boasts numerous upgrades, including PerTronix electronic ignition, stainless-steel exhaust system, Denis Welch Motorsport fuel cell, and BJ8-style front disc brakes. With only 350 miles shown on the reset odometer, this rare collector's item is a true gem for any enthusiast looking to own a piece of automotive history.
