To add to the previous note, I checked to see if the frame is narrower than
the MGB pack-away frame I also have here - oddly it is about the same width.
Someone asked if it could be an MGA frame so I thought maybe to spend a
bunch more time checking for photos on the internet. It looks closest to
the MK1/2/3 frame shown on a couple of sites (checked MGA/B/Midget/TD/TF/AH,
Triumph), except mine has an extra bracing piece (but they catalogue the
three frames differently so this still could be OK).
It doesn't look like the MGA frame at
http://www.mgcars.org.uk/mgccmga/technic/hood/MGAhood10.jpg
Someone indicated that it looked just like the frame on his '65, but some
subsequent comments shed some doubt. Anyone else out there with a '65 (Mk 3
if I have the terminology correct) that can verify?
Thanks.

Early bug-I's didn't have the springs it was a solid bar like in the
pictures. That isn't a spridget frame of any year. Anybody on this list
know what a MGA hood frame looks like?

Right Rick, I forgot about the spring loaded tab. I knew something was
different about the bottom of that.
