    Looks to me like a Monte Carlo bar.

    But does it really need to be that exaggerated at the curvy part to clear the Ford distributor? :hmmm:

    What are those tabs for?

    So, is that an "Ed Davis Special" or a manufactured part? If manufactured, what part number...I know a couple of guys who are looking for one.

    JMO, but I would not put that on my car. The factory braces look so much better.

    This is good quality work. I just slapped some POR-15 on it and should have treated it better before I installed it.

    The front end is MUCH stiffer with this installed, and there is alot more room to work without hitting my knuckles on that flat steel piece of crap that FORD put there...

    Also, this is a pretty old picture, and things under my hood look much different now.

    Don't "dis" Ed's work. Quality stuff, considering that I don't think ANYONE else makes one that fits our cars...
