VERIFIED SELLER
$67,500

The Austin-Healey 3000 is widely regarded as one of Britain’s most celebrated sports cars, but this 1967 Austin-Healey 3000 Fiberfab Jamaican GT Coupe offers a level of exclusivity that few Healeys can match. During the 1960s, Fiberfab introduced the Jamaican GT, a sleek fiberglass-bodied grand tourer designed to transform donor sports cars into exotic-looking coupes inspired by contemporary European GT machines. While many Jamaican GTs were sold as kits for owner assembly, this example is a rare factory-built Fiberfab car, making it significantly more desirable and collectible than the typical home-built conversion. Showing approximately 55,134 miles, it combines proven Austin-Healey 3000 mechanicals with dramatic coachwork finished in Aston Martin California Sage Green over a black leather interior with green piping. With its documented factory-built pedigree, striking design, and limited production status, this Jamaican GT represents a unique opportunity to own a seldom-seen piece of both British sports car and American specialty-car history.
