Default Throttle cable support bracket photos

Restoration of my 33 Tudor model B is in progress. This post shows how I dealt with the throttle cable installation. Because this is a RHD car, information is much less plentiful than for the LHD cars in the US. One aspect for which I could not find photos or descriptions is the throttle cable attachment specifications. I designed the bracket shown in the photos and asked my buddy at his machine shop to fabricate one. The bracket is attached to the firewall using one of the existing coil support machine screw. It is placed exactly over the throttle cable assembly so when the throttle knob is pulled the cable has the right angle to activate the accelerator. It seems to work well. Can anyone share a photo of the original throttle support bracket in a RHD car? Thanks ! Manuel
