rear A/C condensor mounting

hemihunterMember

Can anyone provide further info other than the parts manual drawing, on how exactly the Rear A/C Condensor mounts to the body within the stock shroud.
this is what I have currently , and I see no way of mounting the top holes, Also was there any padding between condenser and car body area?

There are two metal brackets missing from your car.
If you take a look at the Foose photos in the thread about the car he just built, you can see the brackets clearly.

On the foose car I see a pic of lower brackets I presume they are for A/C cond, mine is different in that brackets are part of the shroud and the bottom bolts into 2 bolt holes in car body, the top area of the shroud is my concern for mounting.

Here's some pictures of the brackets on my car (#5357).

I think these are the same ones as you are needing....

Don't get distracted by the background...

Maybe you can fab something up?

Hemihunter;
Enclosing another picture for your reference. The a/c grille bolts are under the condenser on the body. The condenser mounts to the shroud and the shroud mounts to the body with 4 bolts, at each corner. As noted, you are missing the two upper brackets.
