70-S front fuel pump mounting question..

[mac73s]

As disassembled, my 70-S did not have part numbers 43 & 44. If they were present originally the previous owner discarded them and used only the fuel pump bracket (number 38) and secured with a clamp (number 39). It is unclear to me what the missing parts do...would appreciate thoughts. Thank you.

I think those are 69 only.

Subscribed. I would like to know this too. Chris, are you saying item 43 is 69 only..?

Actually...

I owned an early 70S that had a front pump mount clamped to crossmember.

My '70 T had #38, my '69 E had #43.

My car is an October 69 built 70-S....from the responses looks like I have what I need. Thank you all.

My '70 T had #38, my '69 E had #43.

#38 and #43 are used together.

The part in the colour photo in post 1 looks different to the parts in your post Frank.? Was that wine last night better than i thought...

If the smuggler box has the reinforcement layer like this:

You need the '70 fuel pump bracket as in photo on post #1.

Yes, smuggler's box reinforcement in your photo matches mine exactly. Curious to know what the configuration Frank posted fits??
