Description

John Chatham Cars has the pleasure to offer this Austin Healey Mk3 BJ8 original UK RHD with matching numbers built to the highest of standards. Originally built on the 19th June 1964 this car was then delivered to Folkestone Motors Limited to be sold to its first owner just weeks later on the 3rd July. The car comes complete with a comprehensive history file including the original logbook.

The car underwent a full restoration to its current state it is in today 10 years ago and is still in immaculate condition.
