Late model 3000, probably 1967 Mk3 [BJ8]. |

One cannot really tell the "year" of a BJ8 from its external appearance. This car is certainly a Mk III and it appears to have separate turn signal/parking indicators at the front, so it could have been manufactured anywhere from early 1965 to late 1967. Steve Byers BJ8 Registry Havelock, NC USA |

Fair point about being precise on year, but minor comment that Mk3 introduced in UK Feb 64, but without separate front minor lights until Oct 65 (starting with body #76138). This one would therefore become 1966+my in imcdb convention (unless US had separate minor lights earlier?). |
