[Saloon-lovers] Help needed identifying brackets

Saloons
1

Can anybody identify these brackets for me please. They came with a
job lot of Jaguar Mk2/Daimler V8 spares but I have no idea what
they fit. The arms are 13’’ long with 2 x 1/4’’ tapped fixing holes 3
5/8’’ apart at the end. The face is 4’’ x 3 1/2’’. The holes in the
front look like they were drilled after manufacture. There is a
rubber seal/grommet which slides over the arm and sits behind the
face.

Ive done a full restoration on my 340 and I would say they are not
a Mk2 part.

Don’t think they are for an S either.

Tony,

These don’t look like anything that would go on a MK-II. I can’t speak for
Daimler however.

It just seems fair that for every time you are missing a part you
should get one that doesn’t fit anything.
It might be a brace for a 1948 Woolsely farm tractor.

I might be wrong but they look to me like Scuttle Vent brackets.
Or some kind of opening/sliding Vent bracket.

As a second guess, could be Battery holders/aligners.

As a third guess, they could be Pegboard brackets.

Since there’s a pair, they fit all the above somewhat, but not ‘S’
type, and by what I read here, not MK-II or 340 either.

Maybe a Daimler part? But if the Daimler V8 ‘‘MK-II’’ is similar,
then they wouldn’t fit that Daimler model either.

Also the square rubber grommets don’t look like any Jaguar grommets
I’ve seen. It’s more like a rubber gasket.

Thanks for all the replies. Looks like, for the time being, they
will remain unidentified.

Thanks again.–
