ahebron Posted May 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 It looks like you have started to unravel a 600m roll Fantastic deal you are doing there Pete. I bought mine from Newtonm Commercial back in the days when In had employment😉 What was interesting was I asked them if they supplied enough material to do the Vitesse A pillars and they knew nothing about them so I had to order extra material.

Pete Lewis Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 never intended to start a new mail order co , but guy's its all on its way i give up with the royal mail as two were 1,995kg @ 3,10p and two were 2.002kg and that tipped the £8 mark so you can see why some places charge silly postage to cover their "£$%^& packing is the same so some may have a few extra inches Ha! there is no returns policy as they wont go through the letterbox and im supposed to be grounded Ha ! its been on a roll for years , and now folded to get it in a matchbox so leave it hanging opened out if possible or rolled nicely wrinkles can be smoothed with a steamer Pete 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the headlining to fit to an estate roof in the very near future and it's so much easier with the roof off and upside down, like that. Do me a favour if you will - see if there's any code or part number on the cover; I can search later over a coffee or two and see if they were used on any other car of the period. Hi Colin Sorry no number on the cover, and it is getting fragile! The base has Wingard Made in England on the in side of the base and the back of it has B on it. A quick look on Ebay followed by quickly sittin down when I saw the price for the base and lens UKPds149. https://www.ebay.ie/itm/INTERIOR-LIGHT-BODY-LENS-MK1-MINI-AUSTIN-MORRIS-BMC-COOPER-WINGARD-FORD-ZEPHYR-/303549556874?hash=item46acf6a88a Lists it for MINI MK1 AUSTIN MORRIS BMC COOPER 1071 998 FORD ZEPHYR ZODIAC CONSUL 204E 213E EOTA MK.1 MK.2 MAYS AQUAPLANE But you can buy the lens fromhttps://www.minisport.com/17h9971-interior-lamp-cover-dome-shaped-lens-that-was-fitted-to-mini-models-1959-to-1974.html for a fraction of the price wanted on the Ebay auction I have just ordered one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I know it's Wingard I can keep a lookout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
