Although we had fitted the bonnet, a few areas in the engine compartment still required attention. The original battery hold-down bracket was missing and the carburetor air cleaners had not been fitted.
We fabricated a new battery bracket similar to the original and connected it to the factory mounting points.
We had restored the original carburetor air cleaner system but due to the alterations made to the intake manifold, the clearance between the carburetors and engine compartment sheet metal was insufficient. Therefore, we chose the K&N air filters offered by Moss Motors. They fit perfectly. As a bonus, the filter elements can be cleaned and reused.
I love this car...
