Re: 64 Austin Cooper S 1071.
Hi, absolutely beautiful restoration your doing.
I presume that's a date on the underside of your remote housing. Do they all have that or just earlier cars? I just checked mine (67 mkII super deluxe) but it has nothing stamped in.
Thanks, Ollie

Re: 64 Austin Cooper S 1071.
The exhaust with crimped corners are now on. it went quite well, and no problems here.
First had a litte problems getting it fixed, then found out that the bracket in the middle on the Cooper and S are a little longer than normal. After that no problems at all...

Is this a NOS exhaust?
If it isn't it surly looks the part.
Very special as always.

Here's the link to their site, I can only echo the approval of their products above, a trip to the factory is also worth while if you can pick up, a proper office with paperwork on the desks and sparks flying behind the factory windowSTG95F wrote:what sort of money are the systems from maniflow ??
