    I've read all the debates of to notch or not to notch. Once the time comes I will notch the fenders on my '74 for the bumper swap. Is anyone up to a tech article challenge? Anyone have any close up pics and measurements? Thanks.:thumbs2:

    How are you planning to bend the tabs?

    Has anybody made a template for this? It would be pretty easy with the measurments.
