I have a couple, will dig them out of the shed later and see what's what. On the plus side, I've had the bits blasted and galvanised so they should never rust. The negative, is that the bits are now all mixed up so I'll need to do a jigsaw puzzle before selling them.

There were at several designs available. Most required you to drill two holes through the jacking point (that rectangular lump below the boot), while some had two parallel members that passed either side of it. Then the main bar fitted along the bumpers was straight on some and bent on others. A straight bar prevents you fitting rear over-riders.

By the way, whereabouts are you?
I'm on Anglesey but will be heading to Lincoln next weekend and Bath towards the end of next month if that helps.
 
Thanks Harvey.

This is one set. As you can see, the bit that goes under the boot hasn't been galvanised. The curved bit is rather pitted but I doubt if it's lost significant strength. This is the type that bolts through the jacking point. You'll need to add bolts and spacers (large washers) to spread the load within the boot.

This is the other. The two ungalvanised parts are not included, I just put them in the photo to give you an idea of the shape. This type goes either side of the jacking point and seems altogether more substantial than the first type but has the over-rider issue. You'll need to add 4 bolts to go through the boot floor. I'll throw in the plate for the electrical socket with either.
Cost? £30 for the top set or £40 for the bottom one? Plus postage (cheapest offered by Collectplus).
