I call him the "Healey from Hell".
By the way, he was built 6/66!

> With a screw-on VIN plate, obviously it is pretty easy to change VINs/body
numbers from one car to another. Unless there is a database of information
available that includes the original body number (or engine number) for a
given chassis, or the ability to compare one car with another near its
chassis number, it isn't likely that a change can be recognized. However,
for BJ8s there is such a database. During the last 20 years, with the help
of several good people, the BJ8 Registry has been able to document original
manufacturing details for thousands of cars and currently has an accounting
for more than half of the total cars built (8,969). So, anyone
contemplating buying a BJ8 who wants to know whether the car has its
original integrity or not should check with the registry.
