[Tomy Turbos]

Hi guys. I need to avail myself to your wisdom.

I have a customer's '29 A which has been decommissioned for close to 20 years and which I have been assigned to bring back to life. Most of the process has been straightforward, HOWEVER, we have the perennial 'weepy' Fuel Tank leak at the Steering Column Bracket.

On removal from the car and clean-up of the area in question it is evident that this has at some point been previously addressed. I can see brazing, but the original rivets are intact. In other words, the 'fix' didn't work.

I have read that the Late Bracket can be put in the Early car. I'm not finding any further detail on the process though. Since I pride myself on "When I say it's fixed, end of sentence", I want to make the best choice for my customer. Ergo, I am seeking the advice of wiser minds. (That's YOU Guys!)

This car is not a nut-and-bolt resto (It has Suzuki Turn Signals...). Still, I am careful in which compromises I make to its originality.

What I am not finding anywhere is a picture of how/where the Late Bracket mounts to the car. This might be all I need to muddle through.

If it helps for you to know this, the Existing Mount is the 4-Rivet, under-Tank design. Everything I can glean so far is that switching to the later design would be a preferred method of ensuring the problem does not recur within my lifetime.

I'm just trying to get a sense of how this is supposed to work before I order any parts.

Thanks in advance!
