The front and rear bumper pads of my ‘ 75 have bolts embedded into the pad. My question is whether threaded inserts hold the bolts.

Pretty sure they are welded to the small metal plate the rubber is molded around. Many years ago I tried to remove the studs and couldn't get them to turn.

I would agree and the pad cast around them much like the spine in the early bumper top seals
