Re: 833 stone guard mounting hardware

I hunted for a set like those on EBay and couldn't find any. So I was getting ready to make a pair out of mild steel, but decided to research the matter some more. I came across another approach for mounting the stone guard (see attached photos) om another car.
I made these out of brass flat bar (1/8" x 1"). The bolt hole for the radiator bracket is slotted to allow for pulling the stone guard tightly against the radiator shell. The straps were bent inward slightly to accommodate the difference in width between the guard and the radiator. After everything was correctly fitted they were sent out for plating.
