Julien,
Do you have, the forward and backward hinge pick-up brackets that slide in the elongated holes in the chassis, to suit a frame, (as I sell the bonnets I also supply the frames), I can supply these but, I would need to fabricate them, the frame has the adjustment to raise and or lower the bonnet....you need both to allow you to get full adjustment.

I made mine from 20 mm tube, with M12 threades for the adjusters for height and bonded it wih the fibre glass I will post a photo later if that helps ??

Adrian, i have "the forward and backward hinge pick-up brackets that slide in the elongated holes in the chassis" but distance beetween this 2 brackets is shorter than my 2 plate in the bonnet. the plate are twisted to fit it. I think i must take photos of my bonnet ( because my english is too limited to make a good description....)

Actually, on ebay, there's a bonnet frame but i think it's not the good vor vixen.
