Default Z-bar Identification

I have a pair of Z-bars that I believe fit a 2nd Gen Firebird. I plan to list these for sale, and I want to make sure I correctly identify the year(s) they fit. Can someone tell me what year car these are off of? They are both the same, other than one being chrome....

Thanks,

None of those look like my 71.

None of the above are '70-72 or '73-81 Pontiac V8 Firebird, have both styles.

Possibly, 2nd Gen Camaro with a small block.

OPH, do you have a picture of the two styles? I finally got the opportunity to climb under my 73 Formula, and although it's hard to tell for sure from under the car, my z-bar (original as far as I know) looks just like the one I posted a picture of in Post #2, except for the large hole and bushing at the top end (mine just has the smaller hole for the rod). It definitely has the curved lower arm. Is that not correct?

As for the other two, while I was at it, I took a look at my 74 GTO, and it appears to match the two others I pictured, which I believe would be the same as a first-gen Firebird, right?

I am not 100% sure where these z-bars came from, but I have never had a Camaro or any Chevy product, so if they are Chevy, I have no idea how I came across them.

Thanks,
Importsmasher
