That shown on the bonnet of BEC 19C is not a works style '9' and don't take any notice of the '6' on LBL 6D as that is wrong as well.
Your best bet is to visit somewhere that makes up vinyl letters/numbers, see what fonts they have that look close and order a few.

Hi James,
Yes, it is fun - NOT !!
I think the clips are a little different but could be wrong. I used some off a Hornet - I'll see if I can take one off the replica and email you a picture of it. I'll check the body parts book as well.

A bit of progress, doesn't look like much, but as you all know it takes time.

Another 970S;
ABW56C (KA2S4 550960), built March 65, originally OEW/white but changed to green/white during its rebuild in 1990. The car went to Japan but the V5 is still here.....

| It's looking a real cracker isn't it! I love the colour, I was always suprised that Surf Blue wasn't more popular.
