I am nearing my completion of the 68-72 rear window storage tray brackets restoration and they are turning out quite nicely.
I cleaned, cleared the threads and media blasted, then painted, the actual brackets that are used to hold the tray to the back wall of the car.
Then I removed and cleaned, removed broken bolts, cleaned the cleared the threads, media blasted the brackets, re-cut the threads and painted the brackets that are used on the back side of the wall to hold the front brackets in place. I located brass bolts to mount to the rear brackets and I am cleaning up the front bracket bushings and bolts now. All in all it is coming along quite nicely. Left brackets are the driver and passenger brackets that mount to the rear removable window tray and then attach to the back wall of the car to the brackets you see on the right side of the picture. The upper and lower holes on the right brackets are riveted to the back wall of the storage area of the car. That can also be bolted to the back wall if that is your preference. I will take pictures when I am done to show the finished brackets and how they go together. This is small, pain staking work but I am enjoying this in the cool of the house while the temperatures outside soar.
When completed these brackets could be used to add a removable tray to a non-removable car such as the 73-77 coupes. I am also refinishing the tray itself so it too will be ready for use along with these parts.
I will advertise it for sale in the future on eBay and Facebook marketplace but for now I am just having fun doing this detail work.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for watching.
