[Healeys] BJ8 frame

[Larry Varley]

Guys
A friend has a BJ8 that has a completely rotten frame and 
superstructure. It would be a huge amount of work to fix, the rust is so 
bad that even all the wheel arches are rotten. SC parts in England say 
they can supply a new frame and superstructure assembly primed and ready 
to paint for about $15000.00. They say they build them at their plant in 
England and have so far made 18. Most have been sent to America. Is 
there any experience out there on this as to build quality and 
dimensional accuracy? For the interest of the group they also insist 
that they are made in England and not India as some rumours suggest. Any 
feedback would be appreciated
Cheers
