Re: 54 motor mount brkts.
Hey Bill,
Not trying to advertise for any one here, but I saw a pair on ebay for sale.
They are advertised for a 1954 Corvette. I was wondering though if 1954 passanger cars didn't have the same motor mounts and if you couldn't just take some off a passanger car??? Just a thought...
Goodluck with the car.

Well, I can tell you that it will be a lot more difficult than getting water pump gaskets! The Corvette frame brackets were unique to Corvette and they were not shared with passenger cars. Once-upon-a-time, these brackets were available from GM. The left side was GM #3706199 and the right side GM #3706200. They were both discontinued without supercession on July 1, 1961.
I don't expect that these brackets are reproduced. However, who knows? I'd contact Corvette Products of Michigan in Lake Orion, MI
Otherwise, you'll probably have to find a used 53-54 frame that's otherwise beyond repair and remove them from it. J.T. Pipers in Vermillion, IL may have what you need.In Appreciation of John HinckleyComment

Vette Products of Michigan does manufacture and sell complete, new 1953-55 Corvette frames for 6 cylinder applications. So, presumably, they also manufacture the frame-side engine mount brackets that are part of that frame. I would say the question is whether they will sell the brackets seperately. I can't see why they would not, though.In Appreciation of John HinckleyComment
