Got my cousin to pick this up for me haven't gotten it home yet but $25 with bumper guards couldnt pass up. Is this the 60/62 bumper or 63/66. From an image search looks to be the earlier. Thanks in advance

FROM a post BY OEM4ME "Ok, I have an answer. The holes are the same spread width-wise on early and late front bumpers. What differs is the spread between holes vertically. early bumpers ('62) have a spread of about 3 3/8" center to center, with the upper hole center down about 3 7/16" from the top edge of the bumper. On later bumpers ('65) the vertical spread is 4 7/8" c to c with the upper hole center at 2 3/4 down from the top edge. If there is a difference in profile, it's not easy to see without a cross section comparison, but the difference in hole spacing is plain as day if you look for it. Funny how you don't notice some things until someone suggests you open your eyes. So lame it took this long to get you that info. Hope this helps "
