[Healeys] Conversion to LHD

[Mr. Bill]

Hi Steve,

I'd contact an old friend of mine, Steve Pike from down under.  Please 
tell him I sent you.  I know he's converted many BJ8's to RHD and must 
have a bunch of LHD parts on the shelf.  I'm sure he could also help 
with any tips about reversing his procedure.   He got a '67 from me that 
had a perfect facia in it.  I'm still kicking myself for not having 
pulled that out first.  But that was 30+ years ago when I was young and 
stupid.  Now I'm just old and still stupid, dammit!  Try this:  
http://www.austinhealey.com.au/  But if that doesn't work, I'm sure Hoo 
Roo or Joe could chime in with a newer URL.

HTH,

Bill Barnett
'53 BN1 #663

It started out LHD, then went to England and got converted to RHD, then to Belgium and back to LHD, but I'm unable to reach the owner via e-mail to get his knowledge.
