Many years ago at a swap meet i bought thease hold opens that I was assured were for my 1959 Sedan Delivery. However they were not.(Lesson learned) I suspect they are for a 55-57 Nomad or Station Wagon. there is three attach points on one end and 2 on the other. There is a 2 position lock feature.
Any one with hepling me make a proper listing as they are surplus and I would not like to mis-represent them. Thank you. Jim

Fully closed 11.125" pivot to pivot
Fully open 19.125"

Could be wagon also. You need to provide the dimensions from pivot point -to- pivot point both fully open and fully closed.

Nomad dimensions are 10.75 closed & 17.125 open. Shorter because of the forward slant of the rear gate compared to a wagon.

These are for the wagon for sure. The Nomad upper bracket is an angle shaped bracket, and the lower bracket is a flat piece with 3 formed holes
