I bought an Austin Healey 3000 this summer. Since it’s winter in Denmark right now, I decided to spend some time trying to find as much as I could about its history.
It was sold from Fantasy Junction in SF and exported to Denmark.

I bought it in 2010 from the Danish owner, but sadly he didn’t have any of the documents that came with the car. They were lost somehow during the tranport. I contacted Fantasy Junction, and they were very helpful, but explained that they had shipped all the documents with the car.
I was hoping to find someone in the SF area, who knows the workshops mentioned in the sales description, perhaps they get their car serviced there, get parts from them or something. They might be able to contact those companies and hopefully help me get a copy of the service history.
The dealers are mentioned in the sales description as: “It comes with extensive documentation and has been serviced at either BMC (British Motorcars, now a Jaguar, Land Rover, Rolls Royce, and Bentley dealer) in San Francisco or British Car Specialists”
I know it´s much to ask, but I hope someone on this forum can help me, if they by chance is going to visit those shops. I will naturally pay for all the expenses involved in getting the information. The American owner for many many years was Charles H. Gibbs from Oakland.
