<p class="MsoNormal">Listers,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Currently working on a bootlid(trunk) for an early BN1 (Nov.
’53) and the bracket for the telescopic proprod is missing. The bootlid is
aluminium and only shows one hole for the bracket to be secured to it. Yesterday
I got a photo of one model of bracket from Michael Salter but this model has
three countersunk machined screws holding the bracket to the lid. According to
Michael, there were three different models of these.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Would anyone with a model that has only one machined screw
securing the bracket to the lid send me a photo so I can fabricate one such
bracket. This BN1 is Body #877 so perhaps any model around that number would
have the bracket I am looking for</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u><u></u> </p>
