Default 1970 GTO Rear Bumper Bracket Help

I tried this on the General Pontiac Tech with no responses. I am hoping someone can help here.

I am having my 1970 455 Ram Air GTO painted and purchased a new rear bumper. However, the brackets that hold it to the frame are rotted and need replacing. I can not find them anywhere. Can anyone help with a good used pair or repops?
Thanks,
Al in Maine

Here are the photos:

my goodness, they look awful. hope the rest of the car didn;t look like that. I have some nice, dry ones here in Arizona. If interested, email is best.
To clarify, the brackets bolt to the body, not the frame.

thanks,
Steve

Al,

I've got a nice pair, cage nuts are all there and strong. Very minor surface rust, shouldn't be any pitting once blasted & painted.

Do you want the 4 mounting bolts with the big washers that hold them to the frame too?

$35 shipped to your door.

Chris
