Thanks. I hear what you're saying. Other than the rear roll pan, whick is a little lame but a style I like, I'm in the ""Do No Harm" mode. When I got the pile of parts, there was no back bumper or brackets. So, for a $90 Craigslist purchase, I got the roll pan and welded and molded it in. In the front, cleaned up the chrome bumper and had it on there. But a bro offered me a pre-'71 so I saved the lights by hanging them inside the grill and had it (and the bolts) painted. I posted it on another thread, but I found the sticky letters while digging in my parts box today. And, since I'm broke and headed to the striper tomorrow, I put them on so I wouldn't be tempted to do another, "Oh, while you're at it,.....".

It's a "repeat picture post", but here's where I am right now:

Haha probably was a safe way to keep from adding to the spending.
