While looking for a battery hold down bracket, I found a box of items. Hoping to get some help in identifying them. What they are and year of usage. The black nylon strap has 2.75 and Patent 2,937,834 Thanx... Danny

Looks like a console bracket, but don't know the year. Has a "P" stamp. Last 2 Shift boot brackets. But don't know the difference between the square and the offset one. Thanx... D

(no number on it) pic looks like the front bracket used to mount a floor console to the floor

# 6 is the metal tube with brackets at each end.
Console bracket has no number in post. I have a couple console brackets but they don't have the upper center piece. I could be wrong, as they are not handy. So I was wondering the year.

Been thinking for a long time that there should be a special "Thread" or "Gallery" where members could place photos of items they have no idea what they are. Lots of knowledge on this site....probably an equal amount of "mystery" parts on our shelves out there..
How great would that be...

I believe the tube #6 is for starter wires. One end bolt to the starter and the other end uses a transmission bolt to hold it on place. #3 bolts to the bottom of the block and holds automatic transmission cooler lines.

#3 is transmission line bracket, bolted to engine via the oil pan bolts. Looks like Chevrolet, but may have been used across multiple GM lines. #2 used to hold wire bundles to inner fenders and core support, again Chevrolet. #5 is wrapped in wire bundles and align with pre-punched holes around the car usually in the engine compartment and taillight wiring harnesses. #6 I got one of those in a box of parts with my Camaro. I thought it was for my BB starter wires, but was told not on a Chevrolet possible Pontiac.

#4 is a specific 68/69 Camaro front console bracket used only on cars with gauges.
The small upper section (on the top of the bracket base) is designed so the gauge package wiring harness has a place to be routed through. The only problem with yours is that somebody cut off one side of the top bracket.

#4 on the pan, triangle knob is for headlight shaft and the Hexagon for wiper switch, early 2 speed I believe. Have to see the face side to determine make, model.

----the knob with the triangular hole is 65 Corvette headlight switch (maybe other 65 chevs). The second with the set screw is also 65 Chev and reminds me of a radio knob. You would tighten down the set screw on the flat part of the stalk. TMP beat me to the punch!...Bill S

The circular pattern on the knobs looks like my '66 Chevelle, but not with the knurling around the perimeter. Makes sense that it would be an earlier year and GM cut production costs by eliminating the knurling the next year.

The way this thread’s rockin’, it looks like your wish may have just come true!
Seriously great idea for a continuing thread but pics best uploaded using the site system so they last for years also adding/including Part #’s when known may be helpful too.
:beers:

IIRC, that's a 69 console bracket. 68 doesn't have the wiring bracket.
