the fourth variation has a angled corner and the studs seems to be moved to the inner

This page has been updated to show the smooth bonnet interior and the colour variations have been noted.

Re: 73c Mercury Commuter
Just picked up this one in a job lot, noticed it had the smooth bonnet interior then noticed the rivets. The base is a very good fit and with a little help came off, amazing that this has stayed together all these years.
The glazing has been fitted in properly and the rivet has been spun. J.

Re: 73c Mercury Commuter
What a great picture showing the paint inside the body areas with what may be a pale Greyish-Green primer.
I am not at all surpised of this find by Jason, this is 'par for the course' for him
