    Guys...I am assisting a neighbor clean out his over-abundance of old musclecar stuff...these (Lakewood?) traction bars were used on his 67 TGO he used to race at the local track.. If you are building a 'retro 60s-70s era correct musclecar' and are interested...these are available the way you see them for $85, OR I will sandblast em, and apply a nice coat of black Industrial Imron for another $85. Local pickup would be nice but I will offer UPS ground shipping. Wheelz, Tampa Bay

    It could be no one is biting cuz your missing the front brackets, they are flat iron and bent up, the prob is the front brackets are weld on instead of bolt on...they are cool though...!

    Get the part number under the valve cover, and there is a casting number on the center exhaust ports, its the one that is generally used to ID them....factory screw in studs and guide plates most always mean performance...
