The differences were purely cosmetic and varied over the years. The super had a heater, bumper over-riders and parcel shelf (from memory). Someone will come along and elaborate I'm sure. :lol:

I thought the designation was "Delux" Identified with a "D" in the chassis number. 61 to 64 Delux versions had "Duo Tone" trim. Other "delux" features were a heater and over-riders.....

Ah thank you for the info, my 69 super had a heater and what i suspect are bumper overiders allthough not much use when the bumpers are as rusty as mine :P. Also another quick question, my minor is going throuth a resto so i dont know how rusty the underside is. I was wondering if there was a special place to jack the car to get to get a wheel off, as i dont what to break anything. My gues would be to jack up by the chassis?

Use a sturdy piece of wood, and jack it up under the chassis leg at the front.

at the back I would use the axle to jack it up, but make sure that there are no brake pipes in the way.

To remove the top half, undo the two wing nuts from inside the boot, fold it forwards, and lift it out of the two channels. The bottom half then just lifts out.

Do you know where your car was built? It may have been built in Holland!

If built in Cowley UK, a LHD would have been imported to Denmark.
