[Healeys] BJ7 badge

[Josef.Eckert at t-systems.com]

 On the early MK IIs the original badge was hyphenated. There was a change
somewhere late 1962/early 1963. Clausager is wrong on that. All aftermarket MK
II badges you can get are not hyphenated. So all hyphenated badges you can see
on the cars are original ones. My 1962 BT7 has a hyphenated one, beautifully
restored by PAMELA DAVID ENAMELS.

Quote from Clausager:

"On the Mark II and Mark III models, the grille badge was deleted, and a new
badge was fitted above the grille, with the 'Austin Healey' script on a red
background and a winged surround, and a smaller badge below reading '3000
MKII' or '3000 MKIII'. On this later style of badge, 'Austin Healey' was not
hyphenated."

Best regards
