      About CLASSICWISE LTD

      The Classicwise Collection is a company formed by Sam Fretwell after he became unable to continue in his employment as a result of injuries sustained as the innocent party in a near fatal road accident in May 2012. Sam has grown up around classic cars and knows all about them as his father used to import rust-free European sports cars from California USA and also built up a successful Porsche 911 sales and service business in the 1990’s. Since leaving school in 2007 Sam worked for the family business Weonlymot.co.uk, initially on reception at the various branches, but then became one of the youngest people ever to become an authorised MOT tester, and then by the end of 2011 was promoted to Branch Development Manager. He had identified, equipped and just opened his first new weonlymot.co.uk branch in Grimsby and was on his way back from there to the Ollerton head office when he involved in the horrific accident. Calling upon his father’s experience in addition to that already amassed himself, Sam’s intention is to establish himself and his company in the classic car business offering initially classic car service and repair, alongside vehicle sales & brokerage. He hopes to be able to offer classic car storage and enclosed transportation as the business develops at Bypass Garage Epperstone. The Classicwise Collection are always interested in any classic vehicle from the early 1900’s to the 1990’s. The images to the right were taken in December 1997 the little chap is Sam. The late twice Le Mans Race winning team boss Tom Walkinshaw pictured taking delivery of his fully restored and upgraded ‘rubber-bumpered’ MGB from Sam’s father. Mr Walkinshaw had purchased this for his own father in law’s 70th birthday.

      Description

      Presented by Classicwise, this beautifully restored Austin Healey 3000 combines classic British sports car character with a host of carefully considered upgrades for reliable and enjoyable motoring.Purchased by the last enthusiast owner in 2015, the car originally wore green paintwork. It has since undergone a comprehensive refurbishment, including a full reupholstery, the dashboard removed and reFrench polished, complete rewiring, a replacement windscreen, and extensive rechroming of brightwork.A lack of oil pressure led to a meticulous engine rebuild carried out by Chesman Engineering in Coventry. The block was rebored and thoroughly cleaned, the crankshaft ground and balanced, and the con rods balanced. The flywheel was lightened and balanced, complemented by a fast road camshaft. Triple Rudd Speed inlet manifolds were fitted along with three new SU carburettors. The engine was assembled locally by renowned XK and EType specialist Mike Halliday. Since the rebuild, it has covered just 7,241 miles.The car now rides on new 72spoke wire wheels and tyres and benefits from electronic ignition for improved reliability. The original gearbox, which had overdrive on 3rd and 4th gears, was replaced with a 5speed unit featuring a high 5th gear, making motorway cruising effortless. Rear springs were renewed in recent years.The indicators were upgraded to operate through a relay, and the rear brake and indicator lights were separated for clarity and safety. The front sidelights were converted to twin filament bulbs with orange indicators in place of the standard white, providing muchimproved visibility.Finished in the iconic steel blue and white combination so admired among Healey enthusiasts, however, the car retains its original green paintwork inside the engine bay and boot areaa testament to its history.This Austin Healey 3000 is a superbly prepared example, blending period charm with thoughtful upgrades to make it usable and enjoyable on modern roads. An ideal choice for touring, shows, or spirited drives.Available now at Classicwise. Book a viewing today our coffee pot is always hot!.
