Hi Ed,
Having a rough day?
If I cannot feel comfortable asking questions here then where?
I would like to thank Editorgary on his succinct and most valuable answer in
helping me understand the methods in determining originality.
HLT,
Ray
I have debated upgrading components to BN-2 M specification
but just for my own enjoyment not as a means of increasing value. >>
Hi Ray !!
IMNSHO *and* what I would do:
leave and a 100 <G> !!!
It is my *feeling* what the majority of folks "in your boat"
a] do not even ask for an august group such as The List for an answer;
b] do NOT take into consideration that "making" the car a "M" that
......they are NOT rebuilding a "M" but an "IMAGE" = fake Healey.
DMH & Geoff were SURE that somehow my car, either accidentally or on
has a Factory Rally/Race motor. Neither was able to "prove" it but both were
keeping their research alive by continuing the search for
some record of a "missing motor" or a Customer Order for a Rally/Race
car that got canceled whilst in production [and car not pulled from the
line].
Had they *found* anything verifying what my motor is and say it was a
Legit Rally Motor, then I found feel OK about restoring "Hortense"
to Rally Car specs.
But [alas] they didn't, so when she DOES get "done", she will remain
a White w/black interior everyday BJ-7.
HTHs !!!
Ed
