Default Old First Gen Ladder Bars

First off new to here, thanks for letting me join.I have a 69 Firebird I just finished restoring, my father and uncle built it in the late 70's early 80's. I've had the car now 25 years, I figured someone here would know what these are. Trying to identify these ladder bars Lakewood/NMW???? Can't find anything listed from Lakewood for 67-69 so I'm curious. Any insight would be appreciated.

Welcome.

Here's a recent ad for leaf sprung NMW ladder bars, they look like yours:

For comparison, these are Lakewood's for a coil sprung car, but I assume the 'ladder' portion would be the same - just the attaching bracketry would be different:

The orange NMW look exactly like it. Probably them, the front brackets are the same.
