29 Austin-Healey 3000 (page 4 of 25)
|
The best known of the 2,912cc, six-cylinder Big Healeys, a reputation helped by motorsport wins all over the world: successes at Le Mans, Sebring, Bathurst, the RAC Rally and the Mille Miglia, to name just a few, driven by heroes such as Stirling Moss. Launched in 1959, the 3000 evolved from a raw roadster to more of a grand tourer by the time its run ended in 1967. Even when it had become terribly outdated it still had more character than most new cars.
