Hi guys, Im chasing a New bonnet for an Old Series 3. Think it was 1974?

Was a Long Wheelbase Wagon, and has Louvered Horizontal Slats, that were adjustable in the grille. The Grille, was a fair way forward of the radiator, and also has a panel about 10cms wide, between top of Grille, and the Bonnet.

Was badged Leyland, and was Mustard Colour.

The Bonnet was different to the other two Series 3s I have, it is shorter, and Skinnier in the front, with alot less curve, almost like Series 2a. Fairly thin too.

I will Post a few links to pics, its on my Drag Car, im removing the Blown Motor, and need a new Bonnet as the old one is Cut right out.

If anyone has one, or can tell me what I need to find would be good,

Thanks Chad 0423 826 939

I'm not sure what I think of that, whether its a good or a bad thing....
looks funny without the vent area, and the front grill and radiator panel is...different :p

but..

it looks the ducks nuts,

I love the canvas sides! :)

I especially love the foxtail!!

Good luck finding your bonnet mate, if not could you reskin the frame
to suit the new 'heart'? I assume your going to a 2.25?? :) :)
