Can you justify your modifications please?
Why 1200?

Because it's got white rubber trim on bumpers which came in for all Heralds with the 1200 introduction in 61 (apart from the rare poverty Herald S saloon which kept 948cc and previous body colour format). You had half the answer by posting it as a 61.

Except that in my literature the 1200 appears for the 1962 model year.

1200 launch was April 61.

Thank you very much gentlemen!

I am old enough, unfortunately, to have owned, or at least driven, cars approaching 80 years old!

It’s getting more and more difficult, my crew is now 87 and has Alzheimer’s, but thank you for the kind thought!

Many thanks to all those kind friends who wished me a happy birthday. I have just been listening to Crosby in front of the Lombardo Orchestra singing “You’re getting to be a habit with me”. Could be true!
