I can confirm that Baby blue (FD16410), a 1968 Mk III did have the fly-off
handbrake - until *Bodgitt & Scarper* got their hands on it and converted it
for me during her rebuild - thank you? I don't think so!
I'm now on the lookout for the parts to convert it back, if anyone can help,
I've gathered they're not the most common of items to find these days.
