[Healeys] Gearbox

[Chris Dimmock]

Gergo.
Missed the model.
Pre BJ8, same most stuff is per sedans.
If you have a pre Bj8, non centre shift, sedan based second hand  
stuff, is usually the answer.
Sedan drivers rarely drove around holding their column based  
gearstick, and wearing out their selector fork.
That's how they wear out (apparently) -holding the gearstick, and thus  
wearing the selector fork).
Besides, holding onto the column gearstick in sedans (A95 - 6 110)  
selector has never been cool.
Apparently.
My Dad told me that.
No personal experience.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Ok!?!
