Pair of early design traction bars, something like I had on my first 57 Chevy years ago. Owner is fishing, even suggests they may be for a Chevelle. Chevy II in crayon marked on one of them, but thought someone might be able to identify them by sight.

Nova/chevy II those look like the Bill Thomas/Nickey traction bars. I know the Bill Thomas where painted blue.

Very cool pieces

With both shock mounts forward of the axle, wouldn't that indicate '67 F body ?
Did any Mopar/Ford leaf spring cars use that arrangement too ?
Trying to "imagineer" a way to bolt them on a Chevelle...:hmmm:

I concur they look to be '67 F-body Bill Thomas traction bars. The color should be like the Pontiac silver-blue engine color. I have a set of these but the front bracket is not as far forward.

Yes, they look like 1967 First Gen Camaro NicKey / Bill Thomas traction bars.

Did you buy them ? They are sold. Heck after learning they were connected to NicKey, if you didn't want them, I was going to buy them.:biggthumpup:

Wasn't me....

I just thought someone would know them by sight and would appreciate the heads up.
