I was lucky i did not have to replace the heel board on mine

Ian,
I have managed to tie down the build date a little better. It is an October 60 car (no heritage certificate yet) with the interim floor and the later recessed front and rear screen frames . Unlike yours, the inner sill in the rear pockets is boxed with a vertical and horizontal plate. Once I actually get the car in the workshop I will be able to get some photos. What build date is yours? It is intriguing all these Minor differences. I wonder if there were some Morris / Austin variations.

That makes sense then yours been a later build , mine is December build .

I think your rear mounting would be like the later type , like in the photo ( my 66 Cooper )

Ian,
Yes I am very familiar with this set up as I have restored four post 62 cars. It differs in that the enclosed box is wider at the rear against the heel board than at the front of the companion box. It seems to be yet another variation.

right ok , would be good to see that set up , good old BMC again
