Were any other Mini's identified by the passenger side bonnet gutter numbers or is this just peculiar to Cooper S's? EG ***/06 |

Well my 1970 Matic has numbers in the gutter. So not just Cooper S. Can't remember what they were as we repainted it years ago. |

When they went to the MK2 range the YDO body codes were stamped in the gutter above the wiper motor. The Code for the Cooper S was 2/06 and the Mini K was 2/05. The MK2 matic used the same 2/05 body code with an A stamped after it. The body code stamping moved to the firewall behind the master cylinders around May 1970.

Thanks gtogreen1969. That confirms for me that I have a genuine Cooper S. My gutter stamp is *** 2/06 (I have substituted *** for my number) but is it an early Mk2? |
