GM #3935570 was discontinued without supercession in July, 1977. This bracket is a unique-to-1968-Corvette big block sort of piece. I don't know of any source for it.

I was afraid of that.
Thanks Joe,

I recall looking for this part in the reproduction marketplace some time ago but couldn't find it.

Look at Corvette Central P/N 243026. I said it's a 68 upper but it looks alittle different.

Dale:

I think that part is for a small block application.

As you suggested, it looks different than the one on my big block, which I believe to be original.

Henry and Dale------

Yes, I believe the the CC part is the small block piece. The big block and small block brackets are similar but they are not the same. Would the small block piece be usable, as-is or modified? I don't know.

Thanks very much. It's always nice to hear that someone is "stepping up to the plate" to make Corvette restoration parts available.

Any update?

It is still in development, but we currently have an original one for sale on our new CC Swap Meet site. You can view it here or visit http://www.corvettecentral.com/swap-meet/

Re: 1968 shroud bracket #3935570--available original or reproduction?

Scott, I may be mistaken but looking at the two different support assemblies in the AIM, for small block 11-13 B5 (3919752) and the big block and A/C cars C60 B3 and L36 A 11, (3935570), I think the difference may be in where the retention nuts are welded to the bracket. The small block looks as though the two welded nuts hold the two bolts # 7 on the back side. Whereas the big block has only one bolt and nut on that side and has two screws #1 going into two welded nuts on the top of the 3935570 bracket. This could be important if you are reproducing the BB part as that one you have listed may in fact be the 3919751 depicted on 11-13,B5 by the position of the welded nuts. Could also be selling the wrong part to someone. I think my BB has the two nuts welded to the top and I wonder if other A/C BB's are that way also? They, like Joe said, may be quite similar and interchangeable, as they can fit both the C60's, small block and big block. Dale

hi Scott
Just looked at your 3935570 and that is NOT a 68 BB shroud bracket. Actually fits 69
If you take the 2 welded nuts off. Fill in the holes. Use the welded nut and tack it to the middle and there you will have a Big Block only 68 fan shroud bracket
Hope this helps

Dale's picture looks exactly what is on my 68 L71 (427 / 435).
