Progress Update
Well, while I have not been able to buy much whilst getting my tax payed, I was tinkering around getting some fiddly jobs done.
First I made a plate, to sit in the lower nearside chassis, that would take my battery.
 
Battery Tray
This was then placed in position and bolted down then battery fitted and clamped down with 4 ali plates so that it cannot move in any direction. Then
I finished making my battery cable and clamped it securely down in place. The results are as below.
 
Battery in place

Battery from above
This gives me free space on the scuttle deck.

Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.
