Austin 7 Ulster – Bonnet and spare wheel compartment straps

A pair of straps for a very nice Austin 7 Ulster, one of my favourite cars. Made to original spec, with just a couple of minor detail changes.

The bonnet strap is unusually fixed on the inside of the engine compartment, and exits through a slot below the bonnet. The rear strap is considerably narrower and secures the cover over the spare wheel compartment.

As usual they are made from Baker’s of Colyton oak bark tanned leather, and should last until petrol supplies dry up!
