A bit more progress made.
Ive rebuillt my battery tray from the first time I did it 5 years ago. The rods were NOS but I was able to punch out the rivets from another tray and re-use them on mine. I also managed to save the two wing nuts from the same rusted tray. Not pictured is the angle iron piece that goes on top of the battery. Ive still got to make the wooden cover but this will be done once I pick up a battery for it.
The second piece is the part that holds part of the Boy's bipod on the back deck. The "tube" portion and felt are new as the originals were too far gone.
