Oh yes, if one has a nice original driver or passenger side door handle for
BT7, BN7 or BJ7 I am willing to pay double (tripple or even more) the price of
a new one. A rechromable would do, with no zinc cancer and no cracks in the
inside corners of the escutcheon. I have about 10 at home. All are beyond
repair.

Betreff: [Healeys] Two more BJ8 parts
Last week's note was so successful I think I'll go to the well one more time.
I just sent back the driver's side door handle, Moss Part No 021-729, for
BJ7 and Phase I BJ8, because there were two significant nicks on it. The
passenger side handle is installed, but it doesn't fit well, the handle
doesn't match the curvature of the door. So I'm going for nice used. My
original handle is broken. Does anyone have a very nice original driver's side
door handle they're willing to part with?
I made the mistake of sending my dash switch bezel, Moss Part No 633-800, the
LHD with Overdrive, to be rechromed, and as I could have expected, the
chroming process has partially obliterated some of the letters on the front of
the plate. First question is can this be remedied - i.e. is there away to get
back the sharpness of the letters now that the chrome has gotten down into the
grooves? If not, second question does anybody have a nice original bezel
they're willing to part with? New one's are only $44.95, but I'm concerned
that a new one won't be as nice as an original.
The good news is that we installed the windshield and the passenger side vent
window on my BJ8 yesterday, and it's looking fantastic.
Cheers,
Rick
