Hi Andy,
Your car looks very reminiscent of my first BJ8. I would guess that the car
is from Eastern Canada as it is typical of what we get to work o up here.
>From your photos I can see that it is largely unmolested so your album will
be a very valuable resource for you.
Good luck, you will get there, my first one took me 1406 hours to complete,
and I stopped keeping records of the time on subsequent cars!!

Andy,

I was able to cycle your pics pretty fast - loaded ok.

But the car is a mess - ode to that British weather -
makes me remember why I left the UK....

Good luck on the resto - should keep you busy for a
while.  But it is a BJ8, so hopefully worth the
effort.

Robert,

Calif.
