I'm currently restoring a 1974 Cuda which I intend replacing the stock front bumper with a new reproduction 70 bumper and 70 bumper brackets from AMD. I'm not sure how it will fit and if the filler piece will still be required to "look right". If I don't need it, I can help you out possibly. *CHECK OUT MY NEW WEB SITE !*

By using the shorter 70 style brackets, the bumper pulls in, and the space where the fillers went disappears...

It has large "C" shaped brackets attached to it that go behind the grill and support a metal filler that fills the gap between the bumper and grill. *CHECK OUT MY NEW WEB SITE !*
