    Just wondering - When I first bought my car the small front bumper had two small "push pads" mounted on it. Kind of made it look like a bulldog. Unfortunately, I managed to wreck that one, and replaced it with the regular small bumper. It just occured to me that I haven't seen one since. Although I haven't looked that hard. Were these common? I have thought about replacining them. Should I bother? :huh:

    1970-1972 bumpers could be had with bumper guards....which yours probably had. Most would agree it looks better without them.
