63 power brake, mounting brackets

[John A.]

I have found a couple of "heavily documented" 63s that do not have the brackets (located under the driver side, wiper grill) riveted in place. They also don't have holes where the rivets should be. Since everyone insists that the power brake booster bracket should be riveted in place, these cars appear to be mistakes. I am curious how many other 63" power brake cars might exhibit this "mistake".
If anyone has a 63, power brake car that does not have rivets holding the power brake booster braket in place, please let me know I will start a data sheet as to how many of these cars actually exist, and publish it when It's completed.
Thanks, John

Re: 63 power brake, mounting brackets

I can not help you with non-rivited brackets, but this weekend I saw three original unmolested cars and one restored car that all had power brakes with rivits holding the top bracket on.
Good luck with your search,
