I sold the set I had about 7 or 8 years ago and the guy paid me $500 for them!!! I see them once in a while on ebay for absolutely STUPID money, but as you all know, retro speed stuff is going for big bucks now. Anyway, just to let you know, the part number you need is GG-7026 and the same part number was used on 67-69 Camaro and Firebird so you might want to also try some of the 1st gen Camaro and Firebird sites like TEAM CAMARO or better yet, THE SUPERCAR REGISTRY. Good luck!

Thanks guys, these are a different design than the typical bars, they actually pivot when you remove the rear bolt for street driving. 2 sets now on ebay $750 and $1000. I can easily make a set for a few hundred, was hoping to find a set for a realistic price to save time fabricating.
What does that rear bolt hit, the spring?

That's a pivot point to go from strip use to street use. Removing that and the pin in the middle (usually lost so replaced with a bolt as shown below) allows the bars to pivot somewhat, thereby keeping them from breaking. Not a very good picture (see below), but I can't find my Ansen catalog and this was the only thing I could find on the interweb from Hot Rod magazine. If you can make it out, it explains what the pivots do.
