C3 Frame Bracket

[Henry J.]

My 68 L36 4-speed convertible has (what I believe to be) a replacement frame. On top of the left hand frame rail, just aft of the clutch cross-shaft bracket and forward of the No. 1 body mount there is another bracket, with two holes. This other bracket does nothing other than mystify me. Can anyone tell me what it's for? Thank you.

This bracket is depicted on the frame illustration appearing on page 28 of the current Corvette Central 1968-1982 Parts and Accessories Catalog 3E.

The bracket to which you refer is to mount the brake distribution and pressure differential mounting switch used for 1974-82 Corvettes. It's presence on your frame would indicate that your frame has been replaced with a 74-82 frame. Depending upon which of these years was used, a modest to considerable amount of work would have been necessary to convert the frame to a 1968 application.
