Another point we ought to mention is that the bottom nearside rear corner of the bonnet is 5/16" outwards from a vertical line dropped from the top corner due to the bonnet restplate being incorrectly fitted. Of course, this does not worry the Coachbuilder but you will, no doubt, want to correct it when the chassis comes back to you. Hn{F. C. Honeyman - Retail orders}/ | ||
