T-top holder (brackets)
One of my collegues has a chrome luggage rack and T-top holders (brackets) for a C3, he said he bought it in the early 80s and the parts are still in boxes, he sold the Corvette before he installed the rack.
He said the cannot find the brackets in any catalog, he assumes they're not available anymore .
I've never seen T-top holders for the luggage rack - did Chevy sell these ? Any photos ?
He wants to sell the parts and is trying to find out what they're worth.

You'll have to look for an original to get this type.
For new, you'll have to replace with the newer C3 strap that has 3 hold down points.
They were available in the catalogs ... but I can no longer find them.
Regarding the Ttop carriers ... they have them at ZIP:
