Betreff: [Healeys] BT7 Details
Team
A friend in the New Forest Austin Healey Centre is restoring his BT7. The
Frame/body is currently in primer at Orchard Restorations awaiting paint which
will be Rosso Red (Colorado is too 'Orange' for our English taste) over OEW.
The completely assembled shell will be ready to take home for rebuild of the
prepared mechanicals in about two weeks.
Gordon (the owner) has a Heritage certificate and a VIN plate but there is no
aluminium Body/Batch tag normally fixed to the firewall above the VIN. It
isn't difficult to create one but it would be good to get the numbers as close
to correct as possible. According to the Heritage the car was built between
10&12 February 1960. It has a VIN number of BT7L-7568. The Heritage also
reports that the Body number was 7563.
I know it's a long shot, but would anyone be able to give an indication of
what the Batch number might be? Even a ball-park figure would be good so that
we can produce something passable.
Thanks for your help.
