BR 48 Front Cross Member brackets

[Tony Betts]

Hi All,

On my SWB Ulster rep, I have discovered, for reasons quite unknown to me, that I am missing the brackets that support the body across the break of the floor to the firewall. Does anyone have a set or even one of these from which I could fabricate copies to mount. They appear from photos to have been riveted(steel, I think) to the cross member. It would seem to be an important thing to have these and the corresponding pieces on the footwells.

Erich - Are you sure you don't have a 1923 chassis ?  (they didn't have them either).  Seriously though, the brackets are easy to make from 1/8" steel.  I'll send you a drawing if you let me know your email address.  Mine's ausevenoz @ gmail.com   Cheers,  Bill in Oz.

Hi bill,

Do you know when they started fitting these brackets.

thanks Tony.
