Default 69 front grill mounting ?

Does anyone have some pictures of the front grill mounting brackets?
in particular the center mounts at the top mounting points for the grills ?
I think mine have the top mount points cut off.
I assembling from box of parts, thanks, 69VETT

Get the AIM (Assembly Instruction Manual) for a 69 Vette. Available from all the major vendors. Willcox has it on CD.

The ZIP website has pictures of the brackets.

69 Here are the pic from the AIM. 71 is right, the pdf version of the book is easy to use and will find pictures fast. The books are set up with a text find option. It is on sale in the forum sale side and ships for free if you enter this code GNQVYX when you check out.

Thanks 69, I'm kind of glad they are not!

I enjoy this and it keeps my mind busy....But not enough. . . I posted the same picture twice. I'll fix this in just a second, there is a better picture. Picture correct! Now you can see the center bracket and how it mounts.
