[Healeys] Ebay BJ7

[Martin Jansen]

there are 3 phases to the BJ8- Phase I 1964- single signal lamps front and
rear, front brake calipers are the same as BT7 BJ7.
Phase II -1965- chassis modification -drop frame rails at rear axle, radius
arm on rear axle were introduced, larger front brake calipers, still single
signal lamps.
Phase III -later 1966 and on - dual marker and driver lights, reflectors on
corner of rear bumper and different license plate bracket on rear bumper.
I am sure there are other differences but these are the most obvious.
The car on Ebay has the upper rad hose is on the left not on the right. This
is odd.

If it was a phase 2 wouldn't it have the two lights on the front?  If I recall
correctly it didn't have but the one set of lights---parking/signal.

=============
This is a 1965 BJ8 phase II. The car has radius arms and the drop in the rear
frame where the axle goes for the increased rear  ride height. This began in
the 1965 model year. The non-overdrive cars generally had a 354 gear ratio
axle in it.
I would not be surprised if the car brought 10,000.00 to 15,000.00 on ebay
anything less than 10,000.00 would be a bargain. I have had in my shop
similar
cars with the rusted floor pans in place requiring the same amount of work as
this one .The last 2 were purchased over 20,000.00.
Yes it can be fixed.
