Need this broken bracket

[tbird430]

I need a replacement for this broken bracket off my '60 T-Bird with 430cid engine. It connects the rear edge of the a/c compressor mounting bracket to the left front lower head bolt. It was orginal an "L" shaped bracket, I only have half of it...

This would be an inside veiw of the bracket. The bolt hole u see goes to the head bolt.

This would be an outter veiw of the bracket, the part u would see if on the car and looking straight down behind the a/c compressor.

Another veiw:


In this picture I'm holding my broken bracket with pliers to try and show u where it would go on the car. Again the bolt hole (top of bracket) would go to the left front head lower bolt...

I knew of one last Feburary, I have a call into a guy that stripped a 430 HT W/Air back then, the compressor and bracket were in his garage months ago when I picked parts up from him. I'll keep you informed when he gets back to me.

It seems that I am totally missing that same bracket.

So, if there's another bracket out there somewhere, let me know.

By the way, is this a 352 and 430 item, or only 430?

Thanks

I'm not sure Bart, my fathers 1958 352cid Bird is all tore down & stuff is everywhere in boxes. I had emailed John Draxler as well, but haven't heard back. If a 2nd one comes my way Bart, you will be the 1st to hear about it my friend.

Thanks very much Jon.

Maybe someone with AC on a 352 could see if they have that bracket also.

That would be GREAT. I know there are a few of the 352cid guys on here... LOL!!!
