DUNFRA Duncan & Fraser Adelaide Pair Cast Brass Brackets Carriage And Car Makers

Rare Duncan & Fraser (DUNFRA) Vintage Automotive Pair Of Mounting Brackets – Early 1900s – Adelaide SA

A rare pair of early automotive parts marked DUNFRA, an abbreviation for Duncan & Fraser Ltd., a prominent South Australian carriage, tram, and early motor body manufacturer (1865–1927). They built horse-drawn carriages, trams, and later, bodies for motor cars, including the Ford Model T.

The company also became involved in radio manufacturing.

These cast brass components likely served as mounting brackets or hardware fittings on early vehicles. Given the design and markings these items could have served as:

Pedal covers: attached to brake or clutch pedals in early automobiles.

Or mounting plates or brackets.
