Is there a bracket to hold it? Seems to be a bolt on the drivers side, but my truck doesn't seem to have anywhere to attach the bolt. Any help appreciated. | | |

The bracket on the car is mounted to the firewall, with the bracket arm coming out directly toward the dash. Perhaps your's was removed - look for the bolt holes on the firewall.
These old tube radios are HEAVY and really need support. | | |

I would send you a scan, but lack the hardware. I just sent a big check to John Kerry.  | | |
