[Healeys] BT7 The Netherlands

[Jaap Aeckerlin]

Shawn,
As you can imagine R.S. Stokvis & Zonen was at the time the official
importer for Austin in The Netherlands. As far as I know the AH's for the
Dutch market had their steering wheel on the left,  a speedo in kilometers
(KPH) and an oil pressure/water temp gauge in kilograms per square
centimeter/ degrees Celcius. No special pedal arrangement for driving with
wooden shoes....
Good luck with the restoration!
