Ronald -
The BJ7 is supposed to have the inset door panel
attached to the outer door panel's frame with a little
map pocket located in the bottom between the two
pieces of the panel. If they did not send you the
door panel with the inset door panel fixed on it, that
means they sent you door panels from a BT7.
I would return them and ask for a refund, and then you
should find another supplier if they are not helping
you.
Another alternative is to talk to british car
specialists.... they are a Moss distributor but also a
very accomplished Austin Healey Restoration shop.
www.britishcarspecialists.com. I'm sure they will be
happy to help you deal with Moss, and make sure you
get the right door panels.... although they carry a
very large stock of Moss parts... they also fill in
the gaps on healey stuff with their own sourced stock
as well... they pretty much have everything. Dealing
with them will probably be the quickest & easiest way
to deal with Moss. Talk to Mike in parts, he is a
really nice guy.
