my car came to me with the one with the dip / upsweep for the exhaust, I always assumed it was an ST one as Taylors of Shipston who owned the car before me was a BMC dealer fitted it somewhere after 1968

hello everyone

I just got a rear anti roll bar at a mini event the other day, but I wonder if it's an ARB thing...

I would like to thank my senior experts.

Both ends are square, but the rod itself is round.
So I don't think it's ST....???

Hi,Ronnie

Thank you for the helpful materials.

Looking at this one, it looks the same as the Cooper Car Co. one.
My friend's opinion is that it is a Cooper Car Co. replica (manufactured by Narita Garage).
