Help,
Does anyone know where I can find the sort of triangular pieces that fit in the corners between the frame and the rear cross member. I attached a photo of the LH, the RH is to shot to be recognizable. I'm not really sure what you call these things which doesn't help finding them. This is the last piece I need to get back on the road, any info is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Rob

Those are called exhaust hanger brackets:

They connect the rear bumperettes and the special exhaust hangers, but I see someone has welded hangers to your frame, so the brackets arent essential for getting back on the road  ;)
They are not being reproduced as far as I know, mine was missing, but I found a set on ebay.

Thanks Hemidog :cheers:
At least I know now what they are called and what purpose they serve. My car has some abandoned hangers underneath indicating it had side exhausts back in the day, so that would explain the non spec condition I have now. I don't see any structural reason for these things (obvious by their current condition) so I agree they can be left off. I found a good picture on the links you provided so I know what to look for now. Time to put it back together and get on the road. This was VERY helpful :2thumbs:
I owe you one.
Regards
Rob
