I picked up a barn find 75, 2.0 liter, 75k real miles.
New paint and interior in the early 90,s
Car is green with a white interior
It’s show winning clean.

So, if I plan to sell it after I get it running again (parked in 96)
Should I bother doing anything to the bumpers?
I’m pulling the gas tank, fuel lines and motor.
New fuel lines and flush tank.
Reseal motor, clean it.
Put it back together, get it running nice
New master cylinder.

Do I do the bumpers for the largest market appeal, or leave it stock?
Btw, the bumpers are perfect.

Not to mention that even though the back dated bumpers are classic looking, the big bumpers have that cool, funky 70's vibe to them.
I'm keeping the big bumpers on my 75 for that reason.

Now I just need pork chop side burns, bell bottom jeans and bushy curly hair and I'll be set
