I have this NOS front latch panel here. It is unique in that it has an extra lip on the front.
I also have an NOS from clip that I know is from a 70-71 car as it has the unique impressions from that MY. I have checked my boneyard where I have MY 72, 73, 74. None of these cars has this front lip. It also has five little square impressions when looking face on. So I'm trying to determine what year this lip came on cars, and its actually function. I'm thinking that it could have started in 1975? Can anyone confirm this and also its function? Thanks, Pete |

Dave is correct 75-76 nose. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Also agree, those are little weep holes. My guess is it's just a replacement panel. Noting holes for early bumpers already drilled, but late gasket holder for 75-76 bumper, no BIG holes. |
