I also got Fizzy to square up my tool block on his precision grinder ,it was a few though out of from being square all round . That also made a big difference to the quality of the cuts & finish on precision made indexable tungsten cutters

Well done that man.
They’re the corner pieces that join the front and side cant rails.
Is the copper colour a weld through primer? If so, what is it?

Few things,
an extension shaft so that I can hopefully fit a different encoder onto a servo as the Hiperface one was playing up.
It fitted to the motor.
A new spindle for a finning machine.
And then some ends for a pair of gunwale rollers I am making. I have Magmaweld 316 rods, they are ok but not as nice as the Esab ones I used to be able to get locally.
Got one turned fully.
And welded into the pipe, the others I will turn and weld tomorrow as well as rebuild the finning machine if the new seals and motor arrive.

Yes it’s Upol weld2 copper.
So did you rescue them and swap over? Something to do with the different visor mounts on the mk1?

Yeah these style corners started in ‘64 with the flat spot to mount swivelling sun visors. In ‘66 they went back to normally hinged visors but didn’t get rid of the flat spot.
These ones have been salvaged for what is otherwise a nearly all new shell.
