These are the clamps that secure brake lines and wiring to the frame rails or cross members. Some of mine are missing, others are rusted and/or broke. I haven't found much locally other than cheap plastic replacements. Maybe someone has a stash of these clamps and would part with them?

I was hoping to find some 'original' style clamps, but at least there are some options..........

Also, Restoration Specialties & Supply, Inc. has an icredible collection of small parts. The only "problem" is finding them in their catalog. They also have a GM section in the catalog. http://www.restorationspecialties.com | | | | | Joined: May 2015 Posts: 11,113 Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums | | Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums Joined: May 2015 Posts: 11,113 | Jim Carter's PN EL175 looks original, but I could be wrong.
Maybe if you post a link to a picture of what you're looking for, someone could help.
