The same way they did it in the period, AFAIR, a pop riveted hook on the leading edge of the bonnet...

"Show me the Mini!"

Query is off topic so, in brief, three riveted hooks across the bonnet (RHS, LHS and Centre). Pic will be in this month's BMCE.

Cheers

Not really, as Todd has asked if I would be willing to do it, and be one of the "Main" cars, as mine is fairly close from a distance away ie Green and white, with Green interior..


But Not keen on putting the pop rivits into my bonnet.. Happy to stay at the back this time.... More fun

Mate,
Just bang them in......Its only holes.

If you need hooks I made my own. The bungee cord was NOS from America in the original style. You know, the dangerous kind that if it lets go will remove your eye and half your face. I have one spare here.

Three hooks was a bit of overkill. Any more and it would have pulled the bonnet through the slam panel for an aero advantage.

Hi all
I'm looking at doing my car up as the second placed car but does anyone have any decent pictures of the car 17C?
I know it is green (brg?) with white roof and a yellow nose and there was the dealers name on the front guards but was there anything else? I've found a couple of pictures on autopics website but they are not very clear.
If I'm going to do this I'd rather have it as close as I can get it.
I was thinking of trying to get in touch with Fred Gibson and see if he could help?
Cheers
Rod

Apart for Fred Gibson
Email David Blanch at Autopics on [email protected]. He does have lots of other pictures that are not on the website since he found some for me already
Also try Autosport TNF forum, there are some old photographers on that site that have a large database or just ask the question?
I will look up some old RCN's and other 1966 mags i have and let you know.

Hi Michael - thats cool, #3 finisher - This one http://autopics.com.au/66756-b-arentz-b ... ff-arthur/
