Looks good, I don't think you can put the grille in with the front bumper on. The 72 grille has the plastic part that goes under the bumper.

Agreed, I know I installed the grille before the bumper.

Can anybody share a photo of the location of the tether screw that holds the cable for hood pins? I found two photos and each were in a different location. I would like to figure out were they mounted from the factory.

OK< Thanks! It looks like most the photos I have seen there mounted in one general area, but not one specific. I got it. Thanks again.
Any idea what size thread the bolt for the lower dash frame mounts? Its the bolt that is at the very bottom, closest to the kick panels? There are two. One on L & R sides of dash

They were 1/4-20 X 3/4" long
I hope to be cruising by Thanksgiving. Should be able to drive it to the muffler shop down the street on Monday or Tuesday coming. Going to try and get to DMV for tags today.
Dash and wiring are about 98% done. After I get the exhaust done, I need to hunt down some water leaks. I don't want to install the carpet and have it getting wet and not know about it (rust) but all in all, I could be driving it daily in a week!!!!
