Hallo Dirk!
Thank you for the 100/Six inquiry. I do the Registry for both the BN4 &
BN6. I have the records for all the US and have received files from England,
Germany, Netherlands, etc.
I do not have your car in my files. The closest is BN6 1570 in New
Hampshire and then BN6 1603 in Texas. With this information from you, I will
add
you and the car into the Registry. Information is kept confidential.
An explanation of the VIN is: A is for the smaller size engines and all
Sprites start with an A. B is for the big Healeys. The next letter N is
describing it as a Roadster. They used a J for Convertibles, however something
got screwed up along the way and there were cars with BT. The 4 indicates it
was the Fourth design in production. The L is for Left hand drive as were
90% of the cars manufactured. The remaining number is a serial number and
doesn't have much logic. There built MGA's along with the BN4's so I'm sure
number were interchanged.
A good site for information on the cars is:

Owner's Site)
Here is another good site for information on the 100/Six.
