Hi
Did the handbrake calipers change in dimension or design at any point ?

ie Does a later caliper fit a 1962 3.8??

Robbie, have you looked in the technical section where you’ll find parts catalogues? You should be able to work out part numbers and see if they’re the same for an S2 (eg) as for an S1 3.8
Try that, please

Edited: looking at the parts catalogues they differ depending on serial number of the car. The later 3.8 have the same parts numbers as the S1 4.2. Does that help when you check your serial number?
