If you get a set of the engine mounting brackets for a '67-'72 with a small block, they fit the '60-'62 frames with just a 1/4" or less spacer in top of the frame.

The early small block front horseshoe mounts are very hard to find and $$$$$$ when you do.

Finding the horseshoe and the bellhousing I needed was easy, I just can't believe that no one makes the front rubber

I bought one from Rock Auto a few months ago but don't see one listed now.
Have you checked eBay?

nobody makes on that i have found, unless someone just started. Steel rubber would rebuild your old one, don't know if they still do.

You might try something like two donut type between the horseshoe and the frame. I can't remember how it's attached to the shoe.

I'm looking at the one I got from Rock Auto 2 months ago. It was listed as a wholesaler closeout. The brand is Corteco, part #MT2007. It's a rubber piece about 7" long, 1 3/8" wide, and 7/8" thick, with 4 holes along its length. Not sure if this is the type you need, or if it's available anywhere else.

what tk was it listed for? sounds like a 6cyl type. what mine looks like.

Mister319, I have a clean set of rare original equipment motor mount towers that came out of my 1962 Chevy truck that was equipped with a 283 and a powerglide trans. I also have a set of new aftermarket rubber mounts that I will include for $200 plus shipping from Arizona. I will take some photos of them up and will be posting them up for sale as I sold the truck and won't be using them. Thanks runningiron

61K10, Yes I believe it's for the 6 cyl. horseshoe mount.
