Help ID part, Cleaning house

[mallard]

I have no idea what car this part goes to but I'm thinking Jaguar, or Austin Healey. I got this part with a 57 AH I purchased. The seller also had an XKE. Overall length of the part89"- 49 1/2" wide- 27" tall- 5/8" thick, and 14 holes drilled in the back edge. The part is in very good shape but would need to be rechromed for a concourse car. I'm willing to let this go for a very fair price if anybody needs it. Shipping might be a bit high because of the size.

Was the Etype a 2+2, or a coupe? Looks like half of the rear window chrome for a fixed head E type to me.

Jesse thanks for the reply. The car he had was not a coupe. I don't have any idea of the year or model. It's been at least 6 years since I got the part.

I second Jesse's guess. I know of no Healey part looking like that and it has the shape of the rear glass from an E-Type. Looks like the bottom bit to me.

Looks like the rear cockpit trim for a BJ8 A/H. If I could see the side view I would be sure.

Curve seems too flat, Marv, but the angle of the photo could be deceiving. :shrug:

Side shot of part. This trim piece would lay flat on the car. There is no bend in it. I thought the Healey trim would drop down as it turned into the doors.

Earlier Healey 3000s it curves down to the doors, not chromed either. Sure looks like the trim on my BJ8

Thanks for the ideas on what car this may go on. It seems to remain a mistery at this time. Back in the shed it will go.
