[Healeys] BN1 or BN2

[gradea1 at charter.net]

Original alloy fenders were mounted until gone; then they applied
steel rear wings w/o a swedge line and they got mounted until they
were all gone; then they started using the "new" swedged wings.
Donald Healey requested in 1953 that the doors and wings be made of
steel, as the delivered cars were showing up damaged. (dock workers
with big boots) It took some time to get these into production, and no
one kept of record of when they changed over. Such is history. Hank

  Car # 228086, built 23Aug1955 as a BN2, does not have the body line
(swedge line) behind the rear tires. Perry

     Brian--  
  My 12/54 car #222333 is definitely a BN1 so if the s/n you have is
accurate it should unquestionably be a BN1.  There are a number of
points of differentiation between the two models, some of which would
be rather expensive to fudge from an earlier BN1 to a BN2--is there a
swedge line in the rear fenders?

    Further to the questions on the disc brake conversion, there is
now a bit of confusion about what model this 100 is. The VIN appears
to be B222066. The question is – is it a BN1 or a BN2. Unfortunately
there have been some modifications to the car in it’s earlier years
which really cloud it’s true model.  Brian Drab Vancouver
