Thanks for the replies. The theory that 1A's never came with a rod seems
to be incorrect. The parts book says the change occurred after #1826 and
owners with cars are high as 1570 are saying theirs came with a rod. I was
pretty sure that my #1369 had an original rod. Thanks for those that
responded. Now I can get a good night's sleep :-))

Subject: [Tigers] Hood release
Okay, a question/survey.............some cars came with a cable to
release the
hood and others with a rod. I have heard that the MK1's came with a rod
and
everything after came with a cable.
When I got my MK1A over 20 yrs. ago it came with a rod. It's hard to
believe
that the cable had been switched for a rod because just about nothing on
the
car had been changed. It was as original as you could find. On Ebay
there is a rod for sale that is claimed to come from a MK1A..... Item
#251292299850 .
So, the question is, did anyone else have an original MK 1A or MK11 that
came with a rod rather than a cable?
