What that looks like to me is the hardware from the rear of an early coach installed with a longer back part. Most 73/74 coaches came with two pairs. A lot have been removed in favor of a fixed bed. I suspect the stress/weight on this use is more than what it is designed for. Looks like it works though. (Be sure and anchor it well, that seems to be a weakness on my '73.)
ALSO: The end mechanisms look like "finger pinchers" to me.
