Thanks Brian - interestingly the Gauntlet one looks like the main section of the Enduro one and then an ugly bit put on the end - very Greeves. I can't believe they would go to that much trouble for a prototype.
I have actually made a card template for the parts so if I can get out of be sociable over Christmas () I might see what I can come up with.
It would be interesting know whether they were shipped with the bikes or sourced out there - maybe someone knows?

Hi Tony,
Had another thought re the possibility of drawings for the bracket....
If they exist and follow the usual Greeves practice, I'd guess there would be three to four required in total for the component parts. One for the main 'box' section, another for the lamp holder, another one for the number plate 'tab' (unless the later two items are made in one piece, so one for both), then a final 'with assembly' drawing showing the complete unit fully constructed, shown in both plan and elevation.
I know that at least you have your card templates to work with for now, but be nice to have the original specs to hand if available.
In the meantime, if I hear of any further leads I'll let you know for sure.
Brian.

Just let me have the application and photos and I'll talk to Les - mind you he's probably spotted it on here already...Colin Sparrow

Just had the registration back from the DVLA, no issues this time thank goodness. It did take a long time as I put the application in just as lock down was happening, so there is probably a bit of a log jam.
Just need to get the registration plate then I will try it out on the green lanes near bye.
