I have a 60's front valance on my 54 RHD Oval cabrio that I want to replace with the correct one. I've been offered an Oval valance but it appears to have 3 fingers instead of 4 fingers. Any idea what year this would be off?

Thanks

Steve

That is correct. It actually is not even a one year only part as the early '60's had the 4 finger apron.
