Anyone know where the vents came from?

Ford Cortina MK2?

Hillman Hunter HB (Arrow Series)?

What then?

If they are the same as the Europa (eye-ball type) I think they came from from Renault 16's

I definately remember seeing them in old Fords. Definately MkII's and I'm sure MkI.

Brian,

I'm of a vintage that clearly remembers the 60s. I'd say that the eyebell vents are from either a Mk1 or Mk2 Ford Cortina. I had a Mk1 Lotus Cortina in the early 70s and I'm sure they were fitted to it. It may be worth contacting one of the Cortina owners clubs.

Regards,

Hamish.
