They were the first Cobras to get louvers. The wheels were D type Jag I believe. The trunk lid hinged on the bottom edge with a half lid because of the hard top with a tube from a roof fuel filler to the body location. One of the 3 had two hinged half trunk lids. A lot of screws held the rear window in as they wanted to suck out at speed.

E-Type wheels Nick, from the light weight (LWE). Dunlop produced both but the D wheel was a two piece with round vent holes. The centers were riveted to the outer rim. E type wheels were one piece with rectangular "slot" (10) vent holes.
