Does anyone know where I can purchase the little 90 degree brackets that connect the fender to the radiator support? There should be four according to the assembly manual and they go just beside the outter headlights.


Any help is much appreciated!!!!!

I've never seen them in any catalog, but there are actually only two. They are about 4 inches long and are stamped to conform to the curvature of the fender...four mounting holes in each piece. Two bolts mount the bracket to the fender, two more to the radiator support. Junk yard parts, I would guess.

Wow, this might be harder than I thought. If anyone has a lead on where I could get these I would like to know. I live near Atlanta, GA, but do not know of many yards around with cars of our vintage.

I picked-up a set off Ebay for my '71. There are usually 2 or 3 sets on there at any given time.
I gave about 12 bucks or so if I'm remembering correctly.

Heres a set

I'll check my pile of parts to see if there are a couple left over and get back to you tonight.

If russtea2 can't help I know I have 1 but should have the other also

Basketcase,
Sorry, I checked through the pile of things that are slowly accumulating in the garage, and couldn't find any, did find the core support to frame brackets. Good luck!

Thanks for the help, Dwayne - those are actually the lower braces, I have 3 sets of them. I really dont understand why these are that hard to find....... doh!
