My original 'top hat style' one was angled on my Feb 64.

They are a hard to find part, unfortunately.

Caution that the same design was used on many British 60s cars each with a different body style, so it's really easy to confuse.

There was one on eBay a couple of weeks back, see discussion thread here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21000&p=176888

The style you want is in the middle of the tray in the last photo on that thread...

Yes that's right, the others are my spare parts ;-)

Top hat is not the one for a 64 1071.
