Default Right Hand Drive engine tins

Any of our "right hook" members have pictures you could share of how the engine tins bolt up on a RHD 1935 frame??

Thanks for the post Trevor, as you can see, I have two sets and unfortunately both right side tins have been hacked on, one more so than the other and is taking some "extensive" fab work to rebuild. My other right hand tin wasn't so bad and was a more "minor" repair......BUT I was hoping to get pictures of them "bolted" to the frame? Thanks again and take care Trevor

Sorry, it's been years since I had those things on my car, memory is a bit fuzzy, but the LH one bolts onto the top of the chassis rail with three 1/4" bolts/nuts. spring washers, the three holes are evident in the chassis rail. The one that goes around the steering box is a 'fiddle' to fit, can't remember all the details, I 'think' you have to drop the pitman arm, and from memory it bolts to the bottom chassis rail. Again, the holes are in the chassis rails, get under the car and compare the splash shield with the holes, it should become evident. That particular one is a curse, particularly when you try to access starter motor. Good luck! enjoy the exercise.
