Pontiac Grand Prixs. They had the same weld-in three point brace the GNX got.
You'll have to cut it and reweld it in.

Thanks...
But I think I"ll get the bolt in's for now, until a later date, when I redo the car from ground up.

If it's not too late... make your own. Just get either some electrical conduit tubing, crush the ends, drill holes and bolt them in, or use a 1/4 or 3/8" thick by 3/4" wide steel bar. I wish I would have gone with steel bars, it would have looked a little bit cleaner than how I did mine with electrical conduit. It took me about a half day or so including painting them. WAY cheaper and just as strong.
The steel electrical conduit is something like $5 or so for a 10' piece, just bend it in half to fit it in the car. It's up to you whether to use 1/2" or 3/4", I think I went with 1/2" tubing and 1/2" bolts.
While you're picking up the metal stock, pick up a 1"x1" aluminum or steel box tube for front and rear frame bracing. That only took me about 30 minutes to install both of those.
