MV, They were installed on at least 1 early AC Ace (shown In Rinsey Mill's book original AC Ace and Cobra) and so I do not think they were invented for any kit. They also look very much like those on a Sunbeam Alpine/Tiger and if they are the same can be purchsed from a Sunbeam supplier if you change your mind. BTW, on the 2 Tigers and Alpine I owned, I never had the pin walk out.
