On the '79 MGB that I just bought, which is also pretty much original, the
little bracket held a 25 amp circuit breaker for the electric radiator fans.
In mine, it was 'dead' and I had to replace it with a similar, but not
identical, item from NAPA. It took me a while to figure out what it was,
since my manuals showed an in-line fuse at that position - no bracket, and
no circuit breaker.

Thanks, Howard and Michael Singleton, too. My workshop manual doesn't show
any circuit breaker, but does show an in-line fuse. I see Moss lists a
circuit breaker and a relay for the fans. The wiring diagram shows neither.
The Moss fan relay is half the price of their other relays -- I think I'll
add one. Page 68 of Clausager shows a relay mounted just to the rear of the
fuse box.
