I would make a guess that 16610 was produced in Dec 1961 with a center shif=
t gearbox, fuel pump on left side of car, later water pump, tri carb setup,=
 vertical grill slats, not a convertible, therefore not a BJ8. Something is=
 amiss=E2=80=A6

This talk of BN7s reminds me=E2=80=A6
I bought a copy of the 100/6 & 3000 Haynes second hand in 2000. From the US=
. They were hard to find over here in those days. Paperback version.
Looking at it now, I see that there=E2=80=99s a rather nice sketch on the f=
ront cover of an interesting looking BJ8 with a tricarb engine. Hardly an a=
uspicious indication of the accuracy to be expected therein=E2=80=A6.

The inside cover is inscribed:
Engine=C2=A0 29E/RU/H3146
Car=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 HBT7 L 16610
Anyone we know?
(If I=E2=80=99ve copied it down wrong/the numbers don=E2=80=99t make sense,=
 the guy=E2=80=99s =E2=80=9C6=E2=80=9Ds were pretty ropey).
