I too have been thinking about a few braces for my GN.

My Older Trans-Ams came stock with 1/4 inch steel engine compartment braces
(very heavy duty) running from the front quarters to the front above the radiator.

Then my Newer Trans-Ams came with thin , Bent Metal, braces, that I quickly replaced with the Older ones from a Boneyard.

But, I haven't been to a Boneyard in years, I get the feeling like I'm in the Movie
Deliverance every time I peruse those joints.

Any good Salvage yards in Southern New Hampshire ?

Not many with G and F bodies. Most places crush them right away for
the scrap metal. However, I have found some at Blanchards in Wilto, NH.

BTW, Welcome to the board.
