Interesting bumper info. I don’t know if my bumper is original, but I have the same holes as Chuck.

Hmmm good info guys. I've seen 67's with them and without them. I'm going to go to the GRC site and dig around and see if they have any info on this subject.

Hey Chuck….did you use spacers to clear your calipers? If so, got any pics?

Chuck_Burg 10-13-2021 01:41 AM
Mark, I used a 3/8 aluminum spacer. A friend made them for me. I will get you some pictures tomorrow. It’s still a close fit. Maybe 1/8” clearance…

Finally got an NOS GM lower valance. It fits pretty good. I really wish I would've tracked down an NOS grill and grill moldings. The grill and grill moldings are reproductions from Heartbeat City, not sure of the brand. Driver side headlight molding is an NOS GM piece and passenger side is an OER piece. I was pretty impressed with the fitment of the OER piece. The headlights are reproduction T3s and the parking lights are the originals, amazing how nice the aluminum cleaned up with a little elbow grease! The grill molding is installed to the lower valance using the correct rivet method.

The front bumper is also the original piece and was rechromed by Meclec Plating in Fresno, CA.

As with everything, the original hardware was reused even the original headlight molding screws which have a very small E on the head of each of the 6.

There's a service bulletin about it. The Camaro rear bumpers have a couple of different holes on the bottomside, one for the rear guards in the normal location and one further outboard. I'm not sure why the ones further out were ever put there but they do allow someone the mount the guards further out.
Noted on an invoice

Nice find! My car is earlier than that car... L101310. It's starting to make sense now. Thanks for the info guys! I appreciate other's knowledge on strange subjects such as this.

Your car looks killer Chuck!! You nailed the stance!

OK Mr. Goldfinger...I gotta ask?

When do you bring it home? Or does Goldfinger get to live in that big fancy shop forever. Oh and I see a couple drips and some dirt on the floor there. Don't they have automatic sweepers and floor polishers to clean those floors every hour? :laugh: :smile: :tongue:

Must be nice to have that kinda storage buddy. :biggthumpup:
