Since 1998, I have been the BJ8 Model Registrar. I have BMIHT data for 42460 that says it was a North American spec car originally shipped to the USA. Consequently, it should have originally been LHD and should have had an "L" or "U" in the VIN for NA specification.. Has it been converted to RHD? Orig. body was 87331 and engine was 29K/RU/H17056. Would like to discuss it with the owner if they would contact me.

Thanks,

No contact received from the owner of 42460 since 2011, so I guess I have waited long enough. I conclude that the VIN as entered is simply incorrect and should be HBJ8L42460 (or possibly HBJ8U42460G, but that's only possible to tell from the VIN plate).

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
