David,
YES, they are as per the factory doc.
I=E2=80=99ve had MK1 number 622 since 1971 and
585 since 1995. =20
Both same stick, no hood, I thought they
left them off but Paul Reisentz insisted
they all had them originally.

Could it be Rootes removed it to re-curve the dip stick pull? So now they w=

ieve they just fell off.
