Hey FABO,

Car is a 1970 Duster.

I found this in a box of parts that I had previously blasted and painted. It was wrapped up in paper, which kind of made me think that I must have thought it was important for my build.

What is it?

My first thought was alternator bracket. But, when I pulled the /6 out of the car I'm sure that I left all of the accessories attached, and I don't think that is correct for a /6 alt.

The lowest hole is threaded, if that helps any.

Any help is appreciated.

Nothing off of a 71. Could have had a later motor that had a smog pump or another accessory

Could it be tailgate related?

Not even Mopar, 1965-1966 Ford Galaxie FE with air conditioning, it’s an alternator bracket

Thanks for the clarification.

I sold a '64 Galaxie a few months ago, must have had it in the wrong parts pile.
