Firewall to core brace?

[Blazenlotus]

Does anybody have any pictures of the firewall to core braces? Went to my local honey yard today and found a bunch off of some older Elcos and malibus. Just wondering if they would work and what kind of mods would be needed? How long are the goody ones? Any help would be appericated.

These braces were usually on '78-'79 Monte Carlos, if I'm not mistaken. If you look at the center of the firewall, you'll see two dimples. That's where you drill the holes for the braces and use self tapping hex head screws..or fender bolts.
Of course the holes are already there on the core support.
