Lots of early owners on DDK who will be able to answer your question (www.ddk-online.com).

Mine's in bits so I can't actually tell you but it's the same year and I am pretty sure it's negative earth.

Aside,

were British cars the only Posearth' made

and what on earth was the benefit.


I saw One once but can't remember the car

but it would have been 70's so unlikely to have been foreign (I think)
