Good point Grant, but in the case of the driver handbook the illustrations came from it is entirely accurate for a cab 13 Ford. The handbook it came from is the
F15-HB1. I have some NOS copies of this book available for $A50 each plus postage if anyone is interested. Many of the illustrations apply to most of the Ford cab 13 CMP range.
The other bracket with the original type coil is a pressed steel unit which is mounted using two bolts on the valley cover.
The ignition resistor is mounted next to the voltage regulator.
