[Healeys] BJj8 at Mecum

[BJ8Healeys]

Previously offered for sale at Russo & Steele auction in Newport Beach, CA in July 2017, and on BaT from Washington state in December 2019.

 

This car claims to be chassis 29295, which originally had body number 74166.  However, it has a reproduction VIN plate and the external configuration of the lights argue for a body later than 76137.  With clues like that, I’m always suspicious that the car is what it claims to be.  Folks would be amazed at the number of BJ8s that have acquired a different identity from what it left the factory with.

I’m told this car sold for only $33,000.  Must be the color.  It looks like a girls car to me.
