Do the body, chassis and engine numbers on the car match up with
the Heritage certificate? If not, then parts have come from other
BJ7 or BJ8 donor cars.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I currently manage the AHOABC monthly
newsletter and website. In that capacity I received a request
to list a new members car for sale. He lives in another town
about 400 kms from Vancouver where I live. When he joined the
club, he listed his car as a 1963 BJ7. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is the car he wishes to sell. He has
owned it since 1975. He advised that he had the car restored
several years ago. He sent me a number of high quality photos
of the car. The car is beautiful example of a big Healey and
looks gorgeous. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The first thing that stood out to me was
the car had a wood BJ8 dash. In addition, it has a BJ8 exhaust
system. The interior pictures showed a BJ8 style armrest.
Under the hood, the horns are mounted BJ8 style. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There is no voltage regulator to check
whether it is new or old style as the car has been equipped
with an alternator. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The car is badged with a 3000 MKII badge
above the grill. The car has all BJ7 style lights. The rear
seat, which on a BJ8 unfolds to make a luggage carrier, is BJ7
style.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I emailed back that it appeared to be
a BJ8 and not a BJ7 he emailed me a copy of the heritage
certificate. The certificate definitely lists a BJ7 with a
manufacturing date of the 1 - 7 June 1962.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Other than the car being a hybrid formed
from two cars - BJ7 and a BJ8 I am at a loss to explain it.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyone experienced anything like this?<o:p></o:p></p>
