Wrote too soon. The seats are made from:
"This new Austin Healey folding seat back frame fits all BJ8's with the
folding rear seat. The frame is made
of clear Beech hardwood and the panels are baltic Birch plywood."
Appears that other pieces are made from either Beech or Birch.

Curt is correct. And I suggest that it may be time to ask those who know.
Why not check out Austin Healey Wood which is located in Oxford
Massachusetts
USA 508-987-7301 or http://www.austinhealeywood.com After all, the
original question by Bill Schumann was " .... what kind of wood is used in
the
interior; eg., back panel structure, fold down panels, and the convertible
side and top rail pieces of a BJ8?"

Listers, Great, I agree, wood frame cars are constructed of ash. So buy a
Morgan and join the Morgan list ;-) Healeys *are not* wooden frame cars and
as such what wood in them can be Oak, Mahogany, plywood (and possibly
whatever
else was available at the time) as Alan Seigrist has already stated. >>
