Default Strange brackets.... what are these?

Hi! I found a pair of NOS brackets in my parts stash, but don't have any clue what they're for. Can anyone help identify them?

Thanks!

The look to be the bolt-in rear sway bar, upper frame mounts from a mid to late 70's Camaro or Firebird. The drop link goes from these brackets to the sway bar. The earlier (70-74?) F-bodies used a welded-in bracket)

Allen.....njsteve hit it on the nail head. I looked these up in the 62-75 Gm parts book and Part #485336 is the upper sway bar link bracket for 74-75 Camaro w/special performance suspension. and bolt to bottom of car unlike earlier Novas and Camaros with the welded ones.

I love playing stump the stars. We should start this as a regular feature: ID the obscure part of the day.

I mainly mess with Nova stuff, and I knew these weren't for a Nova, but didn't know what they were correct for. Thanks for your help!

Off they go to Ebay.........
