I have to agree they are both lovely looking cars. Why, oh why though, do re=
storers who purport to know what they are doing insist on using MGB style wo=
od rim steering wheels (=E2=80=98T=E2=80=99 spoke configuration)? It is so w=
rong! The correct AH configuration is at 120deg spacing as all you fine peop=
le will know.=20
It is as crass as putting the fender spears on backwards - an abomination.

The BJ8 has a VIN plate that is rectangular, whereas for such a late car =

plate is not original, but a reproduction.

numbers are stamped into the plate from above, rather than from below as =
original.  That means that there is no way at all that anyone can be =
sure the engine is still original to that car.

 It's heart warming to see my late friend Tom Rocke's cars maintain their v=
alue.=C2=A0 I was at his shop many times during the construction of both of=
 these cars.=C2=A0 As to the question of the wood rimmed steering wheel.=C2=
=A0 Tom actually did not like the look either.=C2=A0 He much preferred the =
look of the original spoke steering wheel.=C2=A0 He installed the wood rimm=
ed wheel because of the customers at the typical auctions he sold these at.=
=C2=A0 He said it make the car look toy like.=C2=A0 Most of the people buyi=
ng an Austin Healey BJ8 or 100M were not Healey lovers like you and me.=C2=
=A0 A lot of them were investors, as in the case of the 100M or first time =
buyers that just liked the look of the car and could afford the artificiall=
y inflated auction prices.=C2=A0 The customers were the ones that liked the=
 wood steering wheel.=C2=A0 To be clear, these were not 100 point cars.=C2=
=A0 They were close, but Tom would do small things to improve the longevity=
 of the car.=C2=A0 Such as, the bracket at the edge of the engine bay=C2=A0=
 that the hood prop would key into when you opened the bonnet. That bracket=
 would be chrome plated in Tom's cars.=C2=A0 He explained that it would get=
 scratched the first time you opened the bonnet if it was painted as origin=
al.=C2=A0 The bumblebee sparkplug wire was not factory original, but looked=
 good when the bonnet was open to the customer that did not know the differ=
ence.=C2=A0 Tom knew his customer's at Barret Jackson or RM auctions.=C2=A0=
 Sometimes he would get the self proclaimed Healey expert=C2=A0 come along =
before the auction during inspection telling him that he was ruining the ho=
bby by over restoring the car. Funny, these experts were never buyers. =C2=
=A0 Tom would paint some of the cars non-original colors and they would sti=
ll sell for high prices.=C2=A0 He was the only seller at these auctions tha=
t would guarantee the car mechanically for one year.=C2=A0 Tom built the en=
gine for my BN2 restoration I am proud to say.=C2=A0 Without his help my Bu=
geye would not have come out as well as it did.=C2=A0 He was frequently jus=
t giving me parts I needed or selling them to me ultra cheap.=C2=A0 Tom gav=
e me a set of carbs for my Bugeye that were missing when I bought the "bask=
et case" car.=C2=A0 He sold me BN2 transmission with only 10,000 miles on f=
or only $1100 for mt BN2 project..=C2=A0 That was a gift as far as I am con=
cerned.=C2=A0 It could have been sold for much more.=C2=A0 He had a great s=
ense of humor too.=C2=A0 I miss him dearly.Mike MacLean

        <div>It's heart warming to see my late friend Tom Rocke's cars main=

Very nice cars.  The fuel filler mod on the 'M' is intriguing. You can 
get a nice 120deg spoke wood wheel, if you're willing to wait for Mike 
Lempert:

With the 100M while I don=E2=80=99t see the need to nitpick I do wonder =

"... offered for sky-high amounts where their identity and integrity are 
questionable ..."

There's a word for that ... can't think of it at the moment ... know it 
rhymes with 'clod,' 'plod' and 'shod.'

ps.  Do like the way he routed and secured the braided fuel line from 
the shroud to the carbs on the BJ8.   I've always wondered what to do 
with that line; I believe it's supposed to go in front of the carb above 
the fuel filter, but mine rubbed against the bonnet--I think that 
particular line was a bit too long--so I routed behind the carb.  Looks 
like a simple P-clip is the answer (chromed is over-the-top IMO).

Agreed, If you are going to the effort to restore a Factory M, it only
makes sense that when you reproduce the engine tag that you put the "M"on
the end.  BTW for those new to Austin Healey 100s, the M on the engine
number had NOTHING to do with Le Mans, or it being a Factory M model.

Cheers,

Curt
