Offered for sale is my ’62 Healey 3000 Tri-Carb Rally inspired build. I purchased this car in late September 2025 and set about making modifications consistent with a rally car. The mods included changing out the smaller Lucas driving lights with the reproduction Lucas 7-inch Flamethrowers. Moving rearward, I installed an aluminum rally style grill with air ducting kit I purchased from AH Spares in the UK. I also installed leather bonnet straps. Next, I installed a scuttle vent I purchased from Denis Welch in the UK. I replaced the two wing mirrors with new ones because the chrome was pitted. Moving to the rear, I removed the luggage rack on the boot lid which required new hinges. I also had to replace the boot handle/locking mechanism because it was simply worn out. I removed the rear bumper and mounts and replaced them with rally over-riders, mounting brackets and new boots from AH Spares. I added a single leather boot strap and a Lucas reversing light. Lastly, I purchased and installed new downpipes and a side exhaust muffler with dual 2-inch outlets from Moss. In addition to the rally modifications, I replaced the middle and rear pushrod cover cork gaskets because they were leaking. I also replaced the rear outer axle bearings, seals, O-rings and paper gaskets on both sides because they were weeping gear lube. I had to replace the rear axle bearing nuts and retaining washers on both sides as well. The engine oil (Valvoline VR1 20W50 Racing Oil) and filter Mobile 1) were changed on January 15, 2026, as well as the differential lube (Driven Racing Gear Oil GL-4 80W90 - Conventional). I purchased a British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate which indicates the car build dates were August 30-31, 1961, and the original destination was Florida. I also purchased the BMIH specification sheet for the car as originally constructed. The car has a clean Florida Title in my name. All told I spent a little over $5,000 on parts since my purchase last year. I purchased the car because I needed a project and I like to do my own take on cars. I have my own private shop. The car was already modified when I purchased it, so I have no regrets about taking the next steps. I am selling the car because for me, it’s completed and I have another car on the way, and I need the space. Most all wear parts have been replaced, the engine has been completely rebuilt, 5-speed transmission conversion, repainted and interior replaced. I have receipts dating back to 1994, through two prior owners. The prior owner (PO) to me had the car for 25 years and spent tens of thousands on upgrades/repairs. The car is currently located in Dade City, FL. Contact me for full narrative describing the car.
