What does the bracket look like that goes from the center of the K frame to brace the bottom of the rad support ?

That is also what I was thinking, but I have a 70 so don't know and cannot directly check

That was my first thought. Checked my 68, not the k frame to rad support.
Under dash support  :scratchchin:

Here's the K frame to radiator support from my 69.  Maybe your's a support from a different model Mopar?  :shruggy:

Looks more like the brace from under a battery tray to the body to me.

being serious..

10" lenght and it seem small bolt ( 7/16" head maybe ? ), so not a heavy stuff to hold.

sounds something like a door/quarters windows stuff. But... is there something inside needing 10" lenght for a bracket ?

or maybe... under the dash?, buuut... with elongated hole to be adjusted ?

It seems also gets into a slot due the key/tab

3rd gens got a similar ( shorter thought ) bracket between headlight bracket support and frame rail end as far I recall, although using J nuts... doesn't 2nds get the same ?

The battery tray brace has a twist bend at one end.

some are saying front fender bracket. does that sound right?

others say "Looks like brace from core support to front valance pan".

I don't think it's the k member to lower radiator brace. I checked my 68 , it has the same brace that green69  posted. I bought  the car sight unseen from a board member. He sent a lot of pics but failed to mention that the lower radiator support had been cut off  ::) ::) . So obviously the brace/bracket wasn't there.

Could be a brace for the front fender area but this was a Daytona clone so the front is all changed.

I don't think that brace gets a nut attached, since it seems bolts attach straight to K member provisions
