That's a factory big block bracket for 1972 only. I say only, but maybe 71 too, I can't remember.

Awesome! A wood bed painted just like GM did it back in the day. Can't wait to see this one finished.

Your original survivor makes me want to restore mine to its original stock form instead of a restomod. Beautiful stuff!
