Later Mk1s
The “KPU” works rally cars, widely used in many events and re-shelled. Is there any evidence the Alan Mann cars had numbers rotated between shells (other than initially – see”392”)?

KPU392C Alan Mann 65 (Whitmore ETCC winner). Was first appearance of “392” on a white/green car at Mont Ventoux 65?

(and was it A bracket or the not yet homologated leaf springs??)
