Thank you Phil your drawings worked out a treat. As you advised I made a cardboard template first to make sure everything was working out, I added 10mm to the height and 10mm to the length to give my modern battery a little wriggle room. 18 gauge is fine but I incorporated a safety edge to the top of the box and lid which gives the box some rigidity. I've omitted the battery locating bar but instead added a couple of bolts with nuts to look the part.
The latches and hinges are off the internet, thank you China and I've used blind screw rivets (that are meant for brief case handles) as fasteners. What a shame I have to paint it now. Thank you all for your advice. Regards, Paul
