For a throttle bracket as Dave already mentioned, but here's a photo of the bracket.

A picture is worth a thousand words, how true. I now see how the old system was. The bracket was removed when the 289 motor was put in. The floor pedal was modified & their was no need for the bracket. Now I will make a plate & mount my Fuse Panel in the center using the nut plates. Thanks for the picture.
