Help sourcing 1971 fusepanel mounting brackets

[AndyLuft]

Hi,

I have a 1971 911 T, and currently in the process of restoring the brittled wiringloom.
The car got a 1974 front tub replacement (with powerbrake servo, fueltank etc) at one point in time and after that it is missing its original inner mounting points/brackets for the 10 and 8 fusepanels by the left inner wing and batterybox (see picture of green car at bottom of post).

Ive searched google, this forum, classic restoration sites (pelican, rosepassion, stoddard etc) to find replacement panel of the left inner fender/battery box area WITH the brackes, yet without any success.

To specify what im searching for it is the two S shaped metal brackets ontop of each other that holds the fusepanels itself, and the box with holes to hold the relays (left of the fuseboxes).

Is the only hope to find those brackets on a original inner fender piece and cut it out to weld in or is it sourcable new?
Should I just skip the 1971 fusepanel setup and proceed with the 1974 fuse panel?

All help and advice is appreciated,
Cheers

Hi Andy,
I just went through this with my '72 after replacing inner fenders. Based on my research, no one is making these as a replacement, so the options are:
1. find a salvage panel and carefully remove them (I did this with the relay panel)
2. make your own fuse brackets

I went with #2 and just spot welded them on last weekend. Photo taken just before seam sealing.
