Sorry about the delay as had grandchildren for half term. I can find you a lever but not the bracket if that is of any help. It might be worth getting in touch with Chris who is on the forum restoring a vignale and has purchased a PF coupe for spares. He should have all the parts you need.

Thanks Dave, I'll check with the restorer, but it's really the bracket that's the headache.
I have visited Chris, but his scrapper is also missing the mechanism.
Thanks again, Richard

Bonnet release mechanism I found on ebay just arrived.
Hoping to possibly use as choke - strange then to notice electrical connections, which suggest this might actually be the choke mechanism?
