Thanks to Brian Geinko on the v8buick.com forum, he sent me all the parts I needed to get my tail gate working again. It would have taken forever to get my rusted and seized pieces to function properly.

I started fiddling with the front end, trying to imagine where the front bumper was going to go, mount options, things like that. Well all the measuring in the world isn't as good as the real thing, and I've got plenty of extra parts to cut up and play around with. So I pulled out a crusty core support and fileted it until it cleared the a/c condenser. My other cars never had the cross braces that connect the core support to the front bumper, but this one does, so I'll hang the bumper from those cross braces and see where it lands
