ID these old school bars?

There's no knurling.  They're 27" across and 10" high and very light.  Chrome is shot (not that this means anything)...  These came off a 1979 Thruster

They're not cut down at all.  the sweep's about 2 inches. These came off an early super HIGH end build from 1979 and are original to the bike.  I didn't think Star was that old(?).

The cross bar looks thicker than what they were using in the 70s.I think GT was the first to use a thicker cross bar,around '81.Not positive,though.So,no way they could have been put on in the early 80s?
