Don't know the source, but - at a guess - it's one of the types that was
designed to sit over the folded hood. Hence the bigger window and slightly
bulbous rear section.
The rear conversion looks good.

Subject: [Healeys] shock conversion and hardtops
I have a question and an alternate source for shock conversions. On
ebay UK there is a BJ8 hardtop I have never seen before. Item number
is 260556071383. Can anybody shed some light on the source and comment
on fit or quality?
As to shock conversions, I have fitted one made in the Netherlands
by Michiel Capelle www.michielcapelle.nl . If you click on onderdelen
on the left of the website you can see a pic of the rear conversion.
It was very well made and fitted easily. The strong crossbrace stops
the twisting of the chassis rail and subsequent cracking I have seen
with other conversion. He also sells a copy of the Koni conversion for
the front. No financial interest etc
cheers
Pieter
