Original rear sway bar?? or not.

I would like to see a pic of your bar, I pulled one from a '69 bird in the '80s and it had the u-bolt you are refering to but if you wiggled it just right it could be pulled around and out one of the holes, I always thought it was JC Whitney piece??? never installed it on anything and not sure where it went??? it was a treasured piece in the '80's to have a rear bar...

hey budnate...unfortunately like i stated, i sold the car years ago, (and cannot find a single photo of the car, let alone a photo of the eway bar)what I remember of the car i had....original silver ss 350..orig auto...now stick..now (when I sold it)orange..w black painted on hockey stripe and black vinyl....had i believe a 70 chevelle 396 motor w/67 vette oval port heads, (aftermarket intake,etc...rosewood, power windows, and that rear bar...sold thru want ad press to someone in north jersey...anyone know where it is???

also, i believe the U bolts were flat across the top and round where protruded thru frame...probably 2-3 inches wide...I dont think it was possible to remove them without cutting thru floorboards, but, hell, its been so many years...i think i would have tried that first....but i would never say anything is 100%....sites like this and others are discovering exceptions to every "GM never made it like that all the time"

i think that if it was available from GM over the counter, some GM exec could have had one made(just like the 68 conv. Z)

my u-blots were square also, after I had it all loose I thought how the h am going to get those out??? started wiggling and one kinda fell in the half way out position, grabbed it with the needle knose and wiggled them right out slicker than snot.
