As usual of the 500 or so photos I took dismantling my BN1 I didn't catch where the engine earth strap was connected. I'm guessing one end was the lower starter motor bolt (but I'm probably wrong with that). Can anyone tell me where the other end connected?

Cheers
 
Heres one half of the equation. Not my pic.

Again, not my pic. Can you see the strap mounted to the frame? If your frame is original then it should have a threaded hole in the side of the frame.
