Wonder if anyone can guess the "origins" of the inner part of this grille which incidentally has not been cut at all?? :D

My first thought was Vauxhall Viva HA, but maybe not wide enough!!! :? :?
So my guess would now be early Austin Maxi ? :wink:

Yes spot on - Maxi mk1.

Was suprised at how "peaked" the Marina grille is and how flat the maxi grille is by comparison.

Looks really smart, and different. Leyland parts bin again :) :) I like that!
