Hope someone can help. I am starting a ground up resto on my 65 elky and I need support brackets for under the bed of the truck. If anyone know a good repro company or can push me in the right direction I would be thankful.
Thanks all Kevin

Some of the body braces on my 72 Elky are rusted gone or very close. Mine are in the tunnel at the back. I figured that when I am ready to start that project I'll go buy a junk Stationwagon for parts, if I can't find the parts.

Have you tried going to Goodmark? They have a lot of body pieces and panels for GM cars and truck. They bought the dies and other stuff from GM so they will fit better than most after market pieces.

Just a thought.

I checked with goodmark and found minimum for 1965. It looks like you guys with the 70s have no problems though. I may have to fabricate them . This just may push back the july finish date. No rushing perfection. Thanks for the help If anyone knows of any good repo supply houses. thanks for the info
