I think you'll find that the tub extensions for the front clip are curved and I wonder if they're the same on Hawk and LB cars? Probably easier to leave the casting flat and take the slack up with the usual rubber blocks? It allows for a little flex and will prevent paint being damaged by hard contact.

I should have explained that better.
Leigh,
Yes the fronts and narrow arch rears should have some commonality.
Guy,
I did mean a flat alloy part, but a chamfer on the rubber part for the upper alloy part. (as in, the 'receiver' part that main part of the catch fastens to)
The 'new' catch ought to be a pattern part for the original Stradale. Including the third hole etc.
That thinking would be the same as those new wood gear lever knobs, in the way that they had the correct thread to fit Betas/Fulvia 3s and Fiat 124 Spiders.
It made the parts useful on other cars. Not just Stratos replicas.
