[Healeys] 100 Data Plates - Photos

[ATIGHTPROD at aol.com]

Thanks to everyone for the feedback on this  subject.  I now clearly 
understand exactly what a  LHD 1953 BN1 should  have. I am missing the Body I.D. 
plate which mounts on the firewall & the  Chassis I.D. plate that mounts on 
the RH frame rail  in front of the  passenger foot well. Yes, I have the 
other two data plates.
 

Gary,
    Here's my Body I.D. plate. As you can see, it's  rather crude and just 
seems to be cut from a roll of metal, stamped and screwed  in place on the 
firewall.
 
           
2  3/4" X 1"
    
Here's the Chassis  Number plate with starter and oil filter in the way. 
It's much more  professionally made with round ends and riveted to the frame 
rail.  As best as I can measure it, it seems to be 3" X 3/4". Maybe someone  
else can post a better  photo. 

 

 
I hope this helps you with your car.

The Body ID plate should be simple to reproduce, assuming I can find  
someone with the correct size & shape dies to stamp my body number on  it. I do 
know the correct dimensions of the plate.
 
The Chassis ID plate will need the correct markings printed onto it.  Is 
there anyone offering a reproduction of this plate? If not can someone  
provide the exact overall length & width of this plate? I cannot be the  first 
person to need one of these. What have others done?
 
Thanks,
Gary Hodson
