Front Bumper removal on a 67

[Morrie]

Short of a big hammer, how does it come off?

Twp bolts go into the "box" of the frame on driver's & passenger side - should be visible if I recall correctly from wheel wells. 12mm socket? it's been awhile, maybe 10mm. Seems to me it took me 15 minutes once I figured it out. Much easier than do the same job on a 69 .... Scott

Thats IT? You mean that I take out two bolts and the thing just comes off? What's holding the front on???? just a chanel on the frame?

my 67 is 3 bolts on the big "L" brackets that bolt to the frame...3 bolts per side, and she's off.

15 mins tops.

who, if he turned evil, could make one heck of a business out of stripping cars.

oh yeah...it's a german car. it'll be 13mm most likely.

there's not too many even size bolts on german cars...and there's mostly evens on japanese...it's uncanny.

I think I could take 80% of my wife's Honda apart with a 10mm socker.... hmmmmmm might be a fun rainy day project

I'll let you guys know how the bumper removal goes. I'll go home tonight and hit the bolts with som PB Blaster to get them soaking....
