twin tank venting

[gogsymac]

I found a source for these slide in clips - or at least ones which look very similar. Can't recall where I got them but can find out if anyone needs to know.
I have quite a few spare so if anyone wants some just let me know.
Pics below.

Anyone know the change over date from the bolted clips to the welded tabs?

Here are some pictures of my Nov 5 built 1275...(complete with factory paint runs).....has the slide in clips.
I suspect that these were eliminated and welded tabs were fitted with the introduction of the RH tank as standard equipment in Jan. 66
P/N 13H9524.....I have a sneaky suspicion that this clip was something that was used on other vehicles. I seem to recall seeing them ...somewhere!
The fact that they appear to be painted green....perhaps they were used on the Lan Rover....just a thought!!!
Pretty sure BMC wouldn't have produced the clip for a small number of RH tank cars.

Thanks Dermott, are the rear boot board brackets spot welded or riveted?

Thanks, do you have a pic of the rivet from the other side of the firewall please? For a pal of mine that’s doing a ‘65.

Hi Steve,
Should have been more clearer about the brackets.
The two on the rear firewall are welded...the three along the rear are riveted.
See these pictures.
