Default Parts revisited

Most have been identified so I'll try the others!


Photo 1
The strange oval bracket which looks like a wire tensioner is the aerial holder when it is stowed on the engine deck armour shield. There should be two. I also think the bracket that has a bend in it is the bracket for it to be attached to this armour plate, the bend being the part that goes over the L section which fixes the armour plate to the engine top cover on a MkI*. The armour plate is the vertical strip of armour on the engine deck meant to protect the 3rd crew member from nasties on his left!!

The bracket beside the handgrip is the bracket which is fixed onto the engine top cover near the front which the nice AA stem bracket is fixed to. There are four of the AA stem brackets on a MkI* and possibly five on the very early ones.


Photo 7
The T shaped bracket with the green end! I think is the 4ins smoke discharger trigger bracket which is fixed on the inside of the rear compartment in the corner below the aerial mount.

Hope this helps
Nigel
