I am restoring a 1959 Series 62 that had factory AC.  The AC compressor was missing when I got the car.  I found a compressor but the back brackets are missing.  I would appreciate if someone with a 1958-60 Cadillac with AC would send me pictures showing how the compressor brackets attach to the AC brackets that are bolted to the engine,  or send me a link to a picture online showing what they look like.  That way I will know what I am looking for or give me an idea on what they look like in case I have to have some made.  Also I think this bracket supports the AC compressor but I am not sure.  Any ideas as to what this bracket is for?  Thank you for your help.  John C aka "DylanFan52."

Years ago, I parted out a '59 with A/C. I still have the brackets for the compressor. Tell me if you are interested.

Sounds like  Roger has what you need. If for some reason he does'nt, I also have the A/C brackets for a 59 Cad. I would not even consider making them . The main one is a big cast piece. Anyway,good luck. Ken Perry

Thanks Ken and Roger for the responses.  The compressor should arrive tomorrow (Tuesday) and after I get a chance to look at it to see what I actually have I will get back with you.  John

Here is the AC compressor.  I have the front adjustable bracket that attaches to the bracket which is attached to engine.  I need the rear bracket.

Thanks for your help Ken and Roger!
