Can I buy the old one from you? Mine is missing the curve, probably from a accident, which is causing the hood not to close.

Timothy_nd28 - If it comes off in one piece, you can have it for the shipping. However, I believe it will not come off well or in one piece. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)

One of the reasons we are replacing the nose on the car is it is creating issues with the whole front end and panel alignment. Evaluating it, we decided it would be easier to replace it rather than trying to remove and re-install it. Stay tuned for pictures of that in the near future once Kent has the new panel in his hands. To be honest, I am really excited to see this front end get buttoned down and finished.

Correct me if Im wrong, but the /6 front panel has different depressions in some areas. I dont know how nitpicky you are getting, but here is the correct depressions on a /6 front latch.

Really? I would be a bit surprised if there was a special nose panel for the Sixes. No reason for there to be really. I am sure the one I bought is just a new NOS panel for an early car. I hope someone can confirm this special detail.

OK, correction. There is not a /6 specific front latch panel, but one for the 70-72 chassis.

It breaks my heart, but this is a 73-74 nose panel and it will not work for my car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif)

So I am back on the hunt for a NOS early, 70-72 nose panel. I am hoping someone has one up in their attic, shop storage, garage, you name it, that does need it. Please send me a PM if you have what I badly need.

If we can't find a NOS panel, then I will start to look for a very clean used panel. But with the level of damage we are trying to correct on the front of my car, an NOS panel would be a God send. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Straightened it and cut it as a 71 should be.
