Mk 2 Cooper S - Airbox sticker

[richardACS]

Anyone able to advise on the Cooper sticker on the airbox twin carbs - blue or black? Thx

My 1969 S has a blue COOPERS sticker

Thank you Peter - it does look like that in John Parnells book but not 100% sure!

The only black ones that I have seen were the ones on the airboxes for an 850. They were a yellow font and the rest was basically clear as they were water transfers

Just a question in the form factor of the air box on an mk2 cooper S: is it oval or with a cut edge?

Early Mk2s were oval, Later Mk2s had the squared off section. I don't know the exact change date, I think it was late 68-early 69.
As far as the decal goes. My car was parked since 1975 with 12k miles and the original decal had the appearance of a Gold and Black waterslide, but its hard to be certain. I'll try to find a photo and Post it here.
