As The Heading Says!

As you may see, the bonnet has 2 holes for Badges on BOTH side!
What Clubman has this Bonnet??? And so i can tell they look like Factory holes! The Body number for this car is a Std Early 71 Clubman!

They're not badge holes, not factory ones anyway.

I'd say some clever person did it themselves or had a home made stone deflector or something on there.

They are not factory holes. No Clubman or Leyland Mini had badges on the bonnet.

I rather suspect that they were for bonnet straps in the first place.

Nice color mate, but run the bonnet back to yer paint guys, those holes have no place on a clubbie bonnet, if you asked em to weld em up they should have welded em up

maybe the manager didn't appreciate his work, cos that is a very nice paint job I reckon.

If the car had Bonnet straps it would have the holes on the front frame for the other end of the straps. Have you looked for those ? Or instead of getting rid of un necessary holes you will add more ? Yes Nice Paint Job and colour.
