I reckon it's not easy to be sure if it's a late Mk II or a Mk III. When I looked at this one today I thought that its ride height could be the higher one of a Mk III since there's someone standing at the back, something that probably didn't come to my mind in 2007. -- Last edit: 2014-09-01 13:54:49 |

My hunch is Mk2 for steel wheels - I think Mk3 only ever had wires, but unconfirmed. Also rear view does not have separate indicators - fitted to later Mk3s at least - maybe all Mk3, but again I can't confirm this (and a quick glance at our Mk3 collection is unconvincing - some of them look updated more than original). |

I think that is too simplistic. It is possible to find images on Google of all variants of big Healey with wires |

At least UK-market 3000 Mk III cars had wire wheels as optional, as can be seen on this sales brochure where the model already shows separate indicators. About the separate rear indicators, they were only introduced in 1965 (some sources say March). Nevertheless, I agree it's probably safer to keep it as a 1963 Mk II. ![[Image: a-h3000mkiii.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1941/a-h3000mkiii.jpg) ![[Image: a-h3000mkiii.1.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1941/a-h3000mkiii.1.jpg) |

Yes - but this about which versions - specifically Mk3 - had steel wheels. What I meant was Mk3 was exclusively wires (not the only version with wires). -- Last edit: 2014-09-02 00:38:28 |
