They look like the manual top brackets - anybody know if they are different part numbers?

I have this set

sure appears the same as the manual top bracket. What is the gap where the top cylinder would bolt on? Manual bracket is 2".

Your right it looks like my brackets are manual top brackets

[bergy]

KevinW's brackets look the same though. maybe PT and manual top cylinder mounting brackets are the same. I know that the top mechanism itself is different, but maybe this mounting bracket is the same. My illustrated parts manual only shows Chevelle manual vs power top brackets (and they are the same part number), anyone have a 69 Camaro exploded view to see if the part numbers are the same?

Thanks

The brackets look the same to me. If they came assembled that would explain the two different P/Ns. Power top bracket has a 2" gap too.

Those brackets are the same between power and non-power. The only difference is the middle bracket on the frame, where it folds.

I believe I have an extra set that I can sell if the other guys don't come through. Dave

Thanks guys - so, it looks like my manual top bracket will work with power top. :-)
