#3 and #11 go together and are used in mounting the front anti-roll bar. Sandwiched between the bar and the front cross member assembly ( aka picture frame). #4 looks like a 2nd set of #3 . #13 looks like the bracket for securing the flexible front brake lines. It is mounted in between #3 & #11. There should be two..... a LH and a RH bracket. The one in the picture appears to be the RH side.

cheers, Richard

The motor is a Lucas item and will have been fitted to many British cars. The differences centre on the rack, its tube, and probably the wheel boxes and the chrom-plated escutcheons on the top of the bulkhead. These vary according to the wiper location. E-types, for instance, started out with three wipers, then reverted to two, but the motor remained the same, but note that a permanent magnet motor was introduced by Lucas. This is easy to identify by its round from, compared to the square field-existed motor.

I would say you can, but I'm not an expert. For instance, some cars have only single speed wipers, some two speed, and I'm not sure how that is dealt with in the system. If you can find a motor where all the wires and colours are the same as the one you have already, then it will be OK.
