<html><body>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.<div><br></div><div>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.

<font size="2">My 12/54 car #222333 is definitely a BN1 so if the
s/n you have is accurate it should unquestionably be a
BN1.</font></div>
<div class="yiv4944869984gmail_default" style="color:#3333ff;">
<font size="2">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?</font></div>

Unfortunately there have been some modifications to the car in it’s
