Haha my dad said he liked my bucket seats too LOL. I told him I am rebuilding the bench seat so bucket seating is temporary.
Really looks great. Keep going. I hope you are using a stainless bolt kit.
I am using mostly stainless, no kit. Every bolt is getting Neverseeze stainless or not! I am 90% stainless fasteners (engine kit too) except for some factory and/or hidden bolts I am reusing with Neverseeze. I want the option to take anything back apart easily later if so desired!!
You could get dizzy counting bolts on these front end pieces! My count is:
Fender bolts (each fender)
- 3 on the door pillar (including bottom carriage bolt)
- 4 on the top to inner fender
- 1 bracket to the firewall (has 2 to fender 1 firewall)
- 5 to grill
- 6 to valence
- 4 to radiator support
- 2 to grill support rounded bracket
count = 25
Valence
- 9 to radiator support
- 10 to grill
Count = 19
Grill not mentioned above
- 4 to rounded support bracket (2 each)
- 2 to center support bracket
Count = 6
