Re: Build that 71 402 already
BUMMER. I must be dumb & blind, because I never noticed this before, even while cleaning heavy grease off the area.....yikes!
As you can imagine, the bottom of the horn is bent forward. I seem to recall the bumper seemed a bit off. That's because it was, by 3/16 ish". Think I'll check my skills with a sledge hammer.
With a glance at my bumper it's easy to see what happened......someone hit a rock, but good.
EDIT: That was easy. I don't know much about welding, but I left a pinch open for it. I'll do a bit more manipulation, but it measures up and will work well as is. After a weld anyway.

With assys, the guide accts for 1000s of OEM identifications and part numbers, all written in short order. 700+ images include assm, illust., charts, and points of interest. Much of the info. applies to all 67-72 GM trucks, and to a lessor degree all 67-72 GM vehicles. My build thread, and more on the guide https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=730025
