Spare tyre carrier
I stumbled across these photos which were were taken before 1990 when I was restoring my 1915 tourer. This carrier came with the remains of the car. It is blacksmith made to fit, using the rear spring U bolts to mount it.
As found, one side was 2" higher when mounted, so I couldn't help rectifying this before repainting it ready ro fit. You might like to try your hand making one or your early tourer Allan from down under.

That's a running board type George, a bit useless on a four door Canadian car!

Re: Spare tyre carrier
G’day Allan…. I didn’t realize I was promoting a sale to you. As you stated “You might like to try your hand making one”; I was only offering another style….
