The police speedo is not normal MkII ‘S’ 130 mph, as it has no kilometre markings.
I will assume for now that the lack of a KPH marking is that the cars were specifically for UK forces.
The zip in the headlining is not applicable to OKD cars, but I found two BMC zips on ebay and have put one in the car for ease of replacing the roofbox. As a rule, zips only applied to cars on G plates and newer (or late ’68 onwards).
- Acorn blue light recessed into box
- 3.5 wheels powder coated and painted
- ‘POLICE’ lettering on sides of doors is magnetic and made of a special material, although on the original cars this would probably have been painted on.
- Radio is Pye Westminster, with a hand held mic/receiver and a control box located in the boot.
Paint code is monotone BMC WT2, or ‘fridge white’, as it’s known.
- Cars were fitted with alternators
- Grease nipple shrouds appear, although these were deleted in October '67
- Single off side door mirror
- Clear glass indicator lenses
- Spare wheel retaining bracket exists, although deleted in Feb '68, build month for the fleet.
