Third-time C3 charm

Like so many others, I have wanted a Corvette since I was a teenager, but it was – or seemed – beyond my reach financially. In my late twenties, when I was still single, I spent a couple of years in...

Re: HELP! Looking for Front/Rear Bumper Pads 1975 (JJinNC)

JJ;

The bumper pads on a '75 are molded into the bumper cover, so the only way to remove/replace them is to remove or replace the bumper cover.
