What is the correct name for the front panel between the headlights? I've tried several searches and can't really turn this up.
My question is: Can someone point me to a link where the removal of this entire piece is detailed? I'm replacing one headlight bucket and the entire nose panel if needed and I'd like to see how that comes apart if possible. Thanks! |

There is some photos here. I think start on page 2.

Otherwise your aligning too many parts without factory jigs to hold the pieces. I'm about to start trimming the donor nose section. My car is a 72, the donor is a 73. This means that the 73 section has the added corner braces in the nose. I had in mind to remove these and utilize only the parts that matched my 72. Am I correct in my thinking? I realize that if I leave them "as is" and install the section in the car, somebody in the future may take a peek in the trunk and notice they aren't correct for the year. This might also scream "crash repair" to someone knowledgeable. On the other hand, I sort of like the additional bracing plus the trunk floor sits so nicely on them vs the way it sits in the 72. I probably know what I SHOULD do... Any thoughts on this? |
