Annual Shutdown Period

We are closed for our annual summer shutdown from Monday 14th September 2020, re-opening Monday 21st September. During this period our phones will be switched off and all enquiries (emails/contact forms) will be dealt with in full upon our return to the office. After an extremely busy and stressful 5 months (we remained open the entire time working 7-day shift patterns), the whole John Skinner team is looking forward to a well-deserved break. Please respect this, and thank you for your patience.

BT7 (3000)

During the same period as the BN7 Two Seater Convertible, Donald Healey also commission the 4 Seater Convertible 3000 Mark 1 & MK2 BT7 model. Manufactured during 1959, 1960, 1961, and 1962, a total of 15,921 models were delivered, with the majority being export deliveries. The majority of the interior trim was the same as the Abingdon built BN4 (100-6) model, with some subtle differences around the gearbox area.

John Skinner Ltd can offer a variety of interior parts and kits for a full restoration of your Austin Healey 100-six / 3000 MK1 and Mark 2. This includes fully trimmed Interior Side Panels, and pre-sewn Seat Cover Kits, as well as Carpet and Flooring kits and Soft Top Convertible Hoods.

We can supply kits in a wide variety of colours and materials, catering for both the original Longbridge factory production line specifications, as well as bespoke/custom options. Materials include Leather and Vinyl/Ambla for the Interior Panels and Seat Upholstery, as well as Wool, Karvel, and Armacord options for the flooring. British Everflex PVC and Canvas Mohair Hooding materials also available in a variety of shades.

All parts are manufactured and supplied from our unit in Cheltenham, based less than 50 miles from the original Longbridge and Abingdon plants.
