None of the holes or brackets are correct for an Ariel number plate that were not fitted to W/NG anyway.

Hello,

Does anyone have the dimensions and/or photos of the brackets that were cut off the luggage rack?

Thanks in advance.

The parts have been sandblasted.
The adventure can now begin.

A name has been found for the Ariel, she will be called "IRENE".

Test cleaning of the aluminum parts.
Very satisfactory result.
Next step: paint test frame.

"Come on Irene" - sorry I couldn't resist and someone had to say it.

No problem, Irene's on her way ;-)

She's patiently waiting on the table for the paint tests.

The chassis is ready for reassembly.
