Bonnet handle

Post by Molly123 »

Hi
I’m replacing the bonnet handle on my 1968 2 door.
Can somebody help with the style of the handle? Was it the plain chrome one or the enamelled one?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Seth

They changed during the early 1960s - at around the same time as the 1098cc engine was fitted, so your car would have had one with a painted "M" not the glass enamel one.

Thanks MM.
At the moment it’s just chrome but obviously over the years the paint has worn off.
Cheers
