- It's certainly true of J2s. All the J2 bonnets I've seen (only about 6!) are stamped with the chassis number and color of the car. My theory is that the unpainted bonnet was trimmed to fit the speci

- The remote shift assembly on the PA bears no resemblance to that on the TC, and I think it's highly unlikely that it could be adapted. You'd be better expending your efforts to find the real thing.
