    S1 Soft Top Cover

    This is the design that I settled on. A little fancier, but I liked it. I'll replace the rivets with chrome "finish washers".

    Under bonnet lamp

    Thanks Eric. I picked up a bonnet lamp at Fall Hershey meet last year. The seller thought that it came from a Sunbeam or MG. It has a mercury switch but has a silver cup around the bulb. Might still use it.

    Minx Engine?

    I have a S1 Alpine VIN B9009694 LRX but with an engine numbered A1987886 H LSX. Could this engine be from a 58 or 59 Hillman Minx?
