The joint venture dissolved in 1971 as the 20-year agreement came to an end. Final production of Austin Healey cars were marketed under the brand name Austin. A successful racing history, including Le Mans, Bathusrt and Sebring, gave Ausin Healey an almost legendary status.
Collector's Information
There were many Austin Healey's produced, with later versions, such as MkIII and MkIV, being produced in larger numbers. As a result, parts aren't hard to find. Restoring an Austin Healey will result in a car with both high collector value and high financial value. Austin Healeys are beautifully designed and fun to drive. For their time, they were among the top performers in their respective classes, with the 3000 doing very well in a number of popular period road races.
