Popularly called the hairy-chested Healey, the Austin-Healey 3000 was, as the name suggests, a large-engined British sports car, typically in roadster form. Unlike typical British roadsters of the time, the Austin-Healey 3000 came with an uncharacteristically large six-cylinder powerplant and was, overall, a larger car, albeit by not much. Produced between 1959 and 1967, it makes for an excellent classic car to own and cherish. Interestingly, in the Austin-Healey 3000’s later years, the majority of production found its way to North America. Today, we’ve got one of those cars, a 1961 Austin-Healey 3000 BN7 Roadster from Gastonia, North Carolina. Why not pick it up and make it your weekend cruiser?
British roadsters like this 1961 Austin-Healey 3000 BN7 Roadster look their best in brighter shades of color, which is why red is a wonderful shade for such a car. The paintwork glimmers in the sunshine, while the car’s silver wire wheels with knock off spinners add that ’60s purebred racing machine feel. Of course, it’s a roadster, so you ideally drive it open-topped, feeling the wind in your hair and hearing the rorty engine’s roar. However, should things get too sunny or rainy, there’s a black manually operated convertible soft top that you can deploy. Inside, you’ve got two black leather-upholstered seats and a classic wooden dashboard maintaining the purist vibe that such cars were renowned for in their heyday. After all, a British roadster is meant to give you unfiltered driving pleasure, unaffected by distractions or unnecessary amenities. However, there is a small trunk that can accommodate a couple of soft bags in case you want to take a longer drive and possibly have an overnight stop in between.
This 1961 Austin-Healey 3000 BN7 Roadster uses a 3.0-liter (actually 2.9-liter if you want to split hairs) inline six-cylinder engine, driving the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission for that classic British sports car feel. The engine uses twin carburetors and can easily cruise at highway speeds. This is truly a car that will make you feel good every time you get behind the wheel.
This 1988 Austin-Healey 3000 Sebring Replica captures the unmistakable style of the British roadster while offering the performance and reliability of American engineering.

The Austin Healey 3000 remains one of the most iconic British roadsters of the 1960s, celebrated for its elegant lines and open-air driving experience. With original examples commanding high values, kit car recreations provide enthusiasts with an attainable way to enjoy the classic Healey aesthetic. This 1962 Austin Healey 3000 Kit Car, offered out of Phoenix, Arizona, captures the spirit of the original while incorporating thoughtful updates.

Produced between 1959 and 1967, the Austin-Healey 3000, popularly called the Big Healey, is a British roadster that featured an uncharacteristically large engine. While your typical British roadster at the time packed a diminutive four-cylinder engine of 1.5-liters or less, the Big Healey stuffed a potent 2.9-liter six-cylinder under the hood. This made it quite thrilling to drive, and quite a few made it to the United States too. However, the numbers are still quite low, so finding one may not be as easy as you think. That’s why we’ve got a 1990 Austin-Healey 3000 Sebring Replica for sale today, from Williston, Vermont. Built upon a Mustang chassis, this car has got less than 20,000 miles on it and is a great way to experience British open-top roadster motoring with some modern convenience features.
With its famously friendly face that is most likened to an inquisitive frog (hence the nickname Frogeye), the Austin-Healey Sprite is a lovable British roadster that was made between 1958 and 1971. With its small road footprint and frugal four-cylinder engine, it redefined what driving fun could be. Despite being the polar opposite of what most Americans considered to constitute a fun or sporty car, some examples did make it here. Case in point, this 1959 Austin-Healey Sprite for sale in Pennsylvania. With a smidge over 53,000 miles on the clock, this spunky little car is the perfect way to treat yourself to something fun to drive, as well as a definitive appreciating asset!

One of General Motors’ most successful and popular A-body midsize cars, the Chevy Chevelle ran between 1963 and 1977, across three generations. It was offered in sedan, station wagon, coupe, convertible, hardtop and coupe utility forms. Back in the day, it was the default choice for many families who wanted clean, reliable and easy motoring, especially when you choose a station wagon. Now, some of these classics have become restomods, like this 1,242-mile 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Concours Restomod LS3 from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This spacious station wagon packs a 6.2-liter LS3 V8, an aftermarket sound system, a reupholstered leather interior and more goodies to make it sweeter on every drive. The car has reportedly been refreshed by Luce Customs.
The second generation or C2 Chevy Corvette came in 1963, bringing that famous split-screen window to the party. Sadly it was discontinued after just one year due to rearward visibility concerns. But, the C2 also gave the Corvette things like pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Stingray badge. Hence, finding and acquiring a C2 in great condition is a very smart decision, soulfully, as well as financially. Thankfully, we’ve done the finding part for you, and present this 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible for your consideration. This sub 43,000-mile survivor car from Riverhead, New York comes with a Turbo-Jet 427ci V8 and 4-speed transmission, original keys, the original owner’s manual and even a Protect-O-Plate included with the sale.
Behold, the famous Fox Body Mustang, also known as the third generation of Ford’s popular pony car. Introduced in 1979, the Fox Body would go on until 1993, and the successor would also use its platform. Now, Fox Bodies are becoming desirable by a segment of enthusiasts who recognize its distinctiveness and quirks too. And yes, the Fox came with a V8 engine option too. Case in point, this fine 1987 Ford Mustang GT Convertible from Cumming, Georgia. This car packs a scarcely believable 4,400 miles, making it a nice time capsule of sorts. It’s got a Marti report included with the sale, and rocks a white soft top. Oh, and of course, there’s a 302 under the hood.
