Jack's Comments:

This is a high quality American made reproduction of the air bottle space saver spare bracket and spring. Comes painted semi-gloss black.

Concours Notes:
1) 1969-70 BOSS 429 Painted semi-gloss black and bolted in place.
2) 1969-70 BOSS 302 Welded in place and painted body color when the trunk was painted. You will need to fill in the bolt holes to be correct.
3) 1969-70 Shelby bracket was welded in place and painted body color
4) Taillight panel blackout paint over-spray on Dearborn BOSS 302's will make parts of it look like it was painted black (see last picture).
5) Spring was painted semi-gloss black (all models).

Passenger side location:  With the tape measure butted against the taillight panel.  The standard J hook mount is 15 7/16" from the taillight panel and the canister mount is 11 11/16" from the taillight panel.
