[Healeys] Suspicious ad

Also, the reflection in the paint behind the headlight doesn't look like a smooth curve to me.  I looked at my BJ8 and 
can see that the front-end might look pushed-in a bit without the splash apron, but the kink in the wheel opening and 
the distorted reflection in the shiny paint is fairly conclusive to me.

Check out photo# 4--pretty much settles it.

I didn't see this mentioned in the ad; I for one would be a bit upset if I paid $50K for a BJ8 sight unseen that had oh, 
say $10K of front-end damage.
