I know what you mean, have been there. The ones I've seen on wrecks are either perished or non-existant, like the ones I didn't have when I got my '71. I went strolling through the plumbing department at the local hardware store and came up with some flat rubber faucet or valve washers that strung onto a long bolt pretty well. The only problem is that the bolts conduct the pump noise a little more than I'd like, but it's comforting to know that your pump is working on a cold morning. I pretty much had to rig up my own mounting until I could find some original parts off a wreck, the whole bracket was missing, don't know why. I'm still using the stacks of washers, though. I suppose some enterprising fellow could use the original metal ends off the perished original mounts and then cast up replacements out of RTV silicone of suitable hardness using some PVC pipe for a mold or something, would be lots more expensive than my stacks of washers.
