Yes you can get the whole thing. But I have two complete setups, both have rusted trays, brackets are unscathed. Being cheap, plus being intrigued by the challenge, I thought it would be fun to fashion up some bucks and hammer away. Actually made a slapping spoon from an old leaf spring to do most of the shaping.

Got hold down bolt riveted to diy tray. First coat of KBS Rust seal applied. Also blasted shiny zinc off repro J bolt. Will redo it to make it resemble cadmium like original bolt. Had to shape the hook so it would actually seat on tray bracket. Going to sand first coat, then 2nd coat, and top coat it with their Top Coat. Supposed to be resilient to chemicals. Did my pedal brackets and arms with it as well.

I could post the pics of my forms I made along with the slapping hammer. I know one thing, I am not successful at applying that Rust seal. Leaves little bubbles and runs easily. Nothing sanding won’t fix. Had some leftover from painting transmission. Thought I had learned something from that, nope. Nice thing, it fills little imperfections and can be top coated with about anything. Mainly wanted to smooth out little tooling marks in the ribs and sanding disc scratches.
