Be the proud owner of an Austin Healey 3000...

…a T-Shirt featuring the aforementioned. Our illustration and colour palette heavely influenced by the amazing launch material of 1959, a real snapshot of the summer of '59 – 60 years ago. Doubtless you wouldn’t turn your nose up at the real thing, but a good one could set you back around £50,000 . These T-shirts are a precision three colour (no expense spared) silk screen print – and a real work of art. Ideal for cyclists too, you'll be spotted from miles away! Order whist we still have stock as some sizes are running low.  

The plain facts:

•  The launch model had two (but very small) rear seats – hence the 2 2

• It was manufactured by BMC (the British Motor Corporation) between 1959 and 1967
• Big Healey, big engine – 6 cylinder 2,912cc.
• The Austin Healey 3000 replaced the Austin Healey 100-100-6 series.
• A total of just under 43,000 Mk1, Mk2 and Mk3 Austin Healey 3000 Sports Convertibles rolled off the line at BMC’s Abingdon works before production ceased in 1967
• We've seen some of the bigger sizes made into cushions - now that's a novel use of a fine T-Shirt!
• And some rather more colourful, esoteric little snippets for the real enthusiast …

• The Austin-Healey ‘brand’ was born of a 20-year (1952-1972) agreement between BMC’s Leonard Lord and one Donald Healey. At the time BMC needed Donald Healey’s sports car design and engineering experience to exploit valuable export opportunities
• The body panels for the Healey 3000 were actually manufactured at the rival Jensen Motor works in nearby West Bromwich
• Donald Healey eventually left BMC (then British Leyland) in 1968 and later joined Jensen to became their chairman in 1972

• Great to wear – with features like taped neckline for extra comfort
• Beautifully finished with twin needle stitching detail
• Highly durable, great shape retention and machine washable at 40°
