arm rest and knee pads needed

[Mike_Bouse]

1969 Spitfire.

Need the arm rest, both knee pads, and the u shaped piece that goes between them.

Don't care about the condition of the vinyl. i will recover anything that does not look to be the same vinyl as my newly restored dash.

Went to a car show yesterday. isn't it amazing what i saw in the way of stock items that didn't come with my car.

also need a coolant recovery bottle for a GT6 engine, and the mounting bracket.

Oddly enough, I don't remember any of those items being stock on a 1969 Mk3, except for the "U-shaped" piece (if by that you mean the dash-to-floor brace, which should be there regardless). At least they weren't on mine, which was only a year old when I bought it. 1970 models might have had the knee pads, and 1971 and on almost certainly did. As for the armrest, I'm not sure that was normally present until perhaps the 1500 models? GT6s, on the other hand, might well have had most or all of the above bits in 1969 (they WERE there on the 1970 models).

well, i was gonna build my own arm rest until i saw all of the spitfires and GT6's in this show WITH said attachments.

now, i want what they have, cuz my reproduction would not be true to form.

can anyone help out? even if it is out of a later model, or out of a GT6
