okay,thats majorly helpful and tyvm. question,do you have a tape measure,is the car nearby, and how much distance is it from the rear lip of crossmember to the firewall back there? ps,if thats a before and after pic,congrats some excellent work there. also,from your signature i see you do rebels. do you perchance have a 1967 grill and tailights for sale?? ------------- you dont get old and say i wish i had.....you get old and say..im glad i did. |

i'll get you measurements tomorrow. different cars. but started with about the same. soda blasting and epoxy primer go a long way to making it look like that. are the 67 grill and taillights different than 68? didn't the grill differ more by trim level, as in a 550 is different than sst? ------------- 69 SC/Rambler tribute 401/th400, 68 Rebel SST LSA, 66 F100 460/c6, 88 Merkur Xr4Ti, 71 Jaguar XJ6 LS1, 08 Supercharged Tundra |

Grille, headlight doors, tail light lenses and tail light housings are unique to 67 models. Ditto for 68 and for 69. Each year is different. ------------- Long time AMC fan. Ambassador 343, AMX 390, Hornet 360, Spirit 304 and Javelin 390. All but javelin bought new. |
