Just curious. Are you sure it isn't a somewhat deformed front fender bracket? I am not an "improved" Ford expert, but I do know that Ford changed the brackets and headlamp mounting to at least four variations which may explain the difference in the holes not being the same. The one bracket (lower in your picture) appears to have been bent down badly, with a significant change in the arc, and buckling on both ends. I cannot tell from the photo if the overall length would match or not.

Wayne that is what I do not know each end of that brace has two small holes and it is kind o vee-ed at the end where the bolts are the other two brackets match up to the body at the and frame at the front and match up with the holes in the fender and it could be an brace that does not even go with this car as there is only one of them.
