You would have read my note about this car.

I have seen that car before. It does have some provenance and as it says =
the car was at the Austin Experimental Workshop sometime in the =
mid-1950s. As it's known there are a number of six-cylinder prototypes - =
BN3/1 which is my car, BN3/4 which is in the Healey Museum, all of which =
gives rise to the question as to what happened to BN3/2 and BN3/3. Now =
there is OAC 1 that is the six-cylinder coupe and this car. Were they =
provided with the BN3 model number? Honestly don't know, but what I do =
know is that both BN3/1 and BN3/4 did not end up with the Austin =
Experimental Workshop so they (Austin) must have done their =
modifications on something and this could be it. As to the vents I =
honestly can't see any design connection with the discrete vents along =
the flank of the Silverstone as they are completely different - they =
really are more Buick. Best wishes Patrick Quinn

Would this be one of the missing BN3s sold off as a BN4?  I wasn't aware =
of this before, seems to have alot of odd bits on it, roll up windows, =
vent windows, 100 windscreen but fixed to the bulkhead, etc.,

=20

Anyone know the chassis number or history of this?  Sorry if it's been =
talked about before.
