V6 Cortina / Capri engine mounts

Required are the metal brackets. We have the rubber doughnuts.

Failing this, can they be bought or manufactured in the UK?

Thanks Chris

Make them, it'll be a doddle if you have the steel and a welder. Get the engine and box in position and get out a ruler

Do you have pics? They might be the same as Scimitars if you mean the part that bolts to the engine?

Try these, and yes it is the parts that bolt to the engine.

Ah - very different, the Scimitar with the Cologne uses the cast (Ford) mounts from the Essex. Someone like wwww.essex engines.com might have them (they also do Colognes)?

They look really simple to make though - perhaps subcontract if you can't bend that thickness metal?

For others info, they only sell wearing or consumable parts so unfortunately not engine mounting brackets.
