Ron,
Those hinges look the same as the ones I bought.
The Morris box is quite a bit smaller than the CMP one. The CMPs put the second set of batteries to the right of the radio with the remotes and stuff. They also have those lockers built onto the front of the box. What are those two units clamped down behind the set on the Morris?
With the doors not being as thick as I thought the sides of the panel box should be 4" wide instead of 3". Also the panel should be mounted 1" down in the box instead of 3/4". On mine the terminals will touch the doors. If you decide the panel was made of plastic use 3/8" plywood and plasticize it with urethane and mount it a bit lower to allow for the different thickness.
I straightened up the printing on the doors and made the image the proper size so you can print it out then cut out the lettering to have a stencil.
Those top bolts in your picture are too close together to be on the sides of the unit. They look like they'll be behind the panel. Quite a few of the CMP body pics don't show that bottom mounting lug hole either. Maybe it's a first or second version thing?
