brackets for a boot board?

Liam

Like the Coopers, Elf, Hornet and some other models I believe the Super had these brackets fitted to floor and rear bulkhead to support the plywood /carpeted boot floor board.

BOOT BOARD BRACKET SET CK948 EQUIVALET
this kit contains all the brackets and mounts that were fitted on original Coopers.Wolseley Hornet and Riley Elf with boot boards fitted as standard. No instructions as some parts need welding in, therefore knowledge of the car and fitment are essential. for use with boot boards CCC110/111/112/113/

hi everyone i have got some pics of the areas that you asked for and a few others too. firstly the boot is in a bad way has had half a boot floor welded over the original battery box is made of sheet steel over the old and there is a big hole between the battery box and the subframe rear mounts. i have never seen inside a mini boot that has boot board brackets so don't know what to look for or where to look. i have also got some pics of the doors where the little circles are theses a exactly in the centre of the top half of the door and appear to be spaced apart evenly, i also have a few pics of the dash rail and the material that is still left under the steering column mounting

inside the boot











the dash rail







sun visors and roof lining





the doors not sure if you can see the circles in the pic but these have the correct 10 hole sliding runners





i am going to ring up Gerry tomorrow have been too busy to phone him i will also email him these pics to me the car all seems to match up. it has the correct shell for the year etc do if it has had the plates and vin swapped at least i have a correct year shell to work with

I can't see any evidence of the boot board brackets on the rear bulkhead in those pictures, if you restore it as a Super (depending on the chassis number), it will cost you as much as a Cooper trim wise, so it's not going to be cheap

[mab01uk]

The filled circles/holes around the upper door frame for Cooper/Super stainless trims would either be quite small for the later pop rivet sized clips or about 5-6mm diameter for the earlier 'tag' style clips which slide in but are no longer available.

This is a 1275gt boot which shows the positions of the boot board brackets.



Below were your fuel pump is fitted, it looks like there are a couple of small holes in the rear bulk head?

I can see what you are saying, but they look to low, he might have to move the pump and take a closer picture square on to the bulkhead

The pull cords on the doors are not a Super feature and no evidence of bootboard brackets either.

Not that they are present clips for the top door chromes were swapped for the rivet type from around June 1962.

The switch panel should be grey and it looks like the ignition switch is the floor start type - Supers were key start.

Hi, I also have a 62 super.

Have you made any progress in finding the missing parts.

hi rob no i havnt its is currently sat in the corner of the garage with all my other projects.i have collected afew mk1 parts that it was missing steering wheel binnacle set up etc. the chassis number matches up with that of a super and the wiring loom minus the push button starter that has been added later in its life is the same as a cooper / super loom. going to be a very expensive resto but looking forward to starting it in the next couple of months once my clubby estate is finished
