Re: wing clamping plates - dimensions
Hi Jim, I acquired these clamps amongst a lot of spares from Raymond Cuypers some years ago but never felt inclined to use them having never seen anything other than the standard 19mm type used on a Nipper.

Re: Tip tank
As stated by RobW a non-return valve was fitted adjacent to each tank (type as shown) and a standard Auster 4 way fuel cock was mounted centrally in front of the pilot mounted on the spar.

Re: Instrument panel mounting
Peter,
The photos show the original brackets for the small panel. They are attached to the sorbo rubber spacer and spar with fabric cement (not screws).
I still have a mould for the instrument shroud if you need one.
