Today I painted up the three colours on the flare box lid . From Darrins and Euan photos it looks like some where painted with the colour going around the corners of the lid , or flat on top . Dale

Can some-one help me out with what the retaining clip that hold the hand brake cable into position on the hand brake looks like , also the clamp that holds it at it's end to the bracket on the lower hull front . I can't find any info in the parts book . If any one has some spare for sale I'll buy . Dale

Hello Dale,
This is the part you need for the lower handbrake clamp.
From memory the top clip is similar to the type used to fasten jeep brake flex hoses to the axle housings so one of these may fit?
