The BJ8 looks easily restorable particularly down here in Aust. Just a =
bit of a cut and polish and away you go.

Wouldn=E2=80=99t be scrapping it in any event

Say, Perry- I am keeping track for the 1st year's production:  1274 cars =
in 1953.  I have about 300 accounted for, but no one knows just how many =
of those original BN1s are still  on the road. If there is 500, that =
would be amazing considering how much abuse these cars took over the =
years.=20

I have been compiling the list for years but just can't get the =
cooperation of the community to come forward with their information. I =
relied on healeydata.com for some of the listings, but that list too is =
poorly attended and dated.

If you know of any of these cars from chassis #138031 to 150363 please =
have them go to the website: healeyhelper.com and fill in the form to =
list their vehicle. I am getting some assistance from British Heritage =
Museum.

Currently we have 9 Healey Registries listed in Austin-Healey Magazine, =
monthly from both clubs, but I do not know how complete their lists are. =
 There are less than 200 of the original 640 100-Ms accounted for. Check =
with Steve Byers as to how many BJ8 might still be around. Lots of =
attrition there.

Regards, Hank

Listers
Had a thought today, after a brisk walk in the snow, about how many of =
the approximately 72,000 big Austin Healeys built are still out there. =20
Anyone keeping up with the registry folks for a current count?=20
