I know this has been hashed to death, but this one really bugs me:
https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/carsforsale/austin_healey/100m/1533959.html
I was looking for a good photo of a 100M in the color scheme of our car and sent this link to a friend. It was only after I sent the link that I saw 'dealer prepared' in the description. This car is blatantly advertised as a '100M' and it appears it isn't. Fooled me, and I generally can spot the frauds right away (the first clue was the expected sale price, about 2/3 of what a genuine factory M should go for in this condition). For a respected auction house to do this kinda chaps my hide.
Also, it appears to have BN1 front wings but I can't tell for sure (the swage/paint line goes to the top of the wheel opening).
