Pretty sure they didn't do 'innies' in 1976 (unless by mistake!).

The innies came along for the later models where the air intake was aginst the side of the bonnet... I believe first seen on the +8 replacement Roadster... smile

From the factory 4 weeks ago - bonnets being fitted, 29 top and 8 "innies" each side. I think this is a 3.7 Roadster.

Now that's interesting, has anyone considered the position of the side louvres, Rosie's are to the rear and give her a dashing look, in the photo of the car you posted they are more forward. Position rather than the number may be more important innocent

Mine on the Plus 4 seem to be in the same position.

My original bonnets had the side louvres pretty far forward as in this picture of me (and my glam passenger wink ) at Prescott



compared to my new bonnet which I think had the original style louvres (ignoring the scoop bit) which fill out the side more.


I guess the later inward facing louvres are letting air in under the bonnet and if further back would just let air in against the lower bulkhead sides, which explains their more forward position.
