#1 Frame gasket/guard

Post by Artis » Thu Apr 29, 2021 7:51 am

Found interesting thing on engine frame. Is this gasket (???) something from factory?
Material is similar to original bonnet locating bracket gasket.
Series 1 1966 (built 1965 october)
Car was in good shape, unrestored. 24 000 miles from new.

If the car was in good shape why are the frames so mangled?.....Steve

Track accident on left side + rough disassamble from previous owner when changing frame.
