Chevelle ladder bar identification

chadk · #1 Yesterday, 02:49 AM

I found these A body ladder bars at a swap meet yesterday and I am unsure of the brand. I’ve had Lakewood and NMW bars but these are different under the rear axle and attach with U bolts. They are not painted and appear to be silver cad plated possibly. Could these be an early design Lakewood or NMW?
Thanks

They are MAS ladder bars, the back shape is the give away on these.

These are the same as what's on my '69 SS396
My '68 SS396 has a different style traction device, also made by MAS

Makes sense that both cars would have MAS products on them, being they were made here in Minnesota.

Thanks for the ID!! It makes sense that they are MAS since I bought them in St. Paul MN. Derek, I always assumed your 69 had Lakewood bars. I like the looks of the MAS bars much more than the Lakewoods.
