The parcel shelf has two pairs of oval holes, one on each side (LHD/RHD use). A rummage in the basement today turned up the straight bracket in my photo, tagged “Air vent bracket—is this original? Hole should be D-shaped.” And the pull is tagged, “Is bracket original?” Now I know the answer to both questions is “NO.” But it should be easy to fabricate a new bracket from photos of other cars, which show the (twisted) bracket on the left side of the shelf.</p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'>One learns something every day from this List---</p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'>Sarah Carr</p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'>BN1 in PA</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sent from <a href="https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986">Mail</a> for Windows 10</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div style='mso-element:para-border-div;border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='border:none;padding:0in'><b>From: </b><a href="mailto:michael.oritt@gmail.com">Michael Oritt</a><br><b>Sent: </b>Friday, October 23, 2020 3:52 PM<br><b>To: </b><a href="mailto:britfan1@epix.net">S.Carr</a><br><b>Cc: </b><a href="mailto:rrengineer.mike@att.net">Michael MacLean</a>; <a href="mailto:healeys@autox.team.net">Healeys</a><br><b>Subject: </b>Re: [Healeys] Under Dash Brackets</p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#3333FF'>My car was built 12/54, sn#222333.
