Can anyone Identify these 2 parts?

I'm pretty sure they are not from a '70-'72 car or I would have seen a pair of them by now, so I'm guessing from a mid to late '60's car. You say they are very rare, very very rare, so I'm thinking maybe brackets for scoops on a '66 or '67 W30, or '68'-69 under bumper W30 scoops, or maybe trunk mounted battery brackets off of a '66 or '67 W30?

The rear fender braces are curved, these guys are straight. If they're long I go with the core support from a Vista Cruiser. If short the bumper supports. BUT... it looks like they've got undercoating on them. So that's back to the undercarriage somewhere. John

Im thinking you are correct along with. Sorry, thought the post replies would come back to my personal email, didnt know I had pintos and such an active website, Im new.
Droldsmurphy and Morland, I think you guys know your stuff, Im hoping anyway...Ok, I had a 1970 W-30 about 20 years ago. I thought I took these off the rear of the fenders that bolted somewhere onto either the frame or firewall, cant remember, to the fender. Just found them in my cupboard in the garage when cleaning it out as I could see them in the back. I had the fenders off and when I put them back on, I didnt see them and forgot they went on.. Wish I wouldnt have sold that car, bench seat option 53 4 speed silver. Oh the things we did. Wow, Ill need to watch this forum(s)

No Stranegly I beleive the big block converts dont have them? You'd think they'd get them first. Not sure if a 455 or SX Cutlass would have them as Ive never thought to look at one of the few for that detail. Terry D. will know the answer to that one

from the 1970 assembly manual all 455s got them EXCEPT convertibles - which needed them most - thus I put a pair on mine anyway.
Edit, though the ones pictured by OP are not curved like I thought they are

You are right mine are curved. i think these are just bumper braces.
