Re: [Healeys] Austin Healey Parts Lists for the BN4 through

[jnew@hazelden.ca]

Mike,

Unfortunately, no, I never started digitizing the Parts List for the  
BN1/2. I started with the BJ8s and worked backwards, and unfortunately  
the project stalled with the BN4/6 lists. The code that produced the  
later lists so well didn't work with the slightly different format of  
the earlier lists; I tried to modify my code but failed. I think I  
dreaded writing a new codebase from scratch, so ran out of steam. I  
did try to resurrect the project a couple of times, but never could  
find the time to complete it.
