You are awesome!!

The fat one is shown in the top pic right?

I cant really tell the location of the small one.  Where is that pic showing?

Thanks!

Both of the pics are of the same brace. One taken from the glove box and one from the top. I should be out at the shop where my parts car is this afternoon. I’ll post some more pics tonight.

Not aware of 2 of these braces in a 72 application. The smaller one in your picture and installed in the picture from Bentworker is the only part and location for a 72.

Hmmmm, I wonder if this is a leftover from a 1971 Corvette I restored several years ago :shootself:

Lol....

I went and scoured the parts car.

I think you have one Vette part / one Mustang part.

The smaller diameter one was the only one on the 73’ rustbucket.

ok so the small diameter bar is what the picture shows.

I swear I thought I pulled the fat diameter bar off from somewhere when I had the HVAC box out.  Hopefully it wasn't somewhere behind the box. :chin:

Thanks for checking! ::thumb::

The small diameter bar is for a 71=73 Mustang and runs from the base of the dash between the radio and the glove box area. It run upward and forward and connects to the cowl area. You can see the bar thru the left side of the glove box in the pic below.

 Not only did this help with the brace but you answered at least 2 questions regarding wiring I posted in a separate thread!!!!  Good idea labeling the wires.  I wish I had done that a year ago when I removed the dash!!! :shootself: :shootself: :shootself: :shootself:

Thanks!::thumb:: ::thumb:: ::thumb::
