[Healeys] BJ8 Price When New

[Patrick & Caroline Quinn]

G'day

Many thanks to everyone who responded.

Thanks to Gary Brierton who told me about his first AH that he bought in 1965
and to Scott Morris who sent me the Road & Track test and Canadian prices of
the 1965 BJ8.

G'day



I am writing a short piece on a 1965 BJ8.



Would anyone know the list price of a BJ8 in the first half of 1965?



Many thanks
