That is interesting now that you mention it I see what you mean about the mounts. After reviewing some photos it seems that they made a "pinch" style clamp out of the mounting plates. With a slot machined through the center of the hole and a transverse screw running through the top of the plate to close the clamp. I think that those plates were about 1-1/2" thick.
According to the current owner it weighs about 6000lbs.
