    Is the front valence the same on the 70-72 Mavs and the 73? I'm gathering money for a small bumper conversion and have a 73 Mav Front bumper and lower valence. I found a 71 bumper and mounts just hoping I don't need a whole lot more.

    The bigger gap in the '73 valances make for a nice place to "drop" in two fog lamps.

    Using sections from a broken grill on the bottom with the lights inset would look keeler!

    Ed Davis (Fan2488) 'might' be doing this to his. I think it'll look sharp.

    Hmmm. I guess I'll have to see what it looks like with the small bumper on there. Thanks for the input.

    Ed. 'Sorry. I suppose I should've called to see if you were working today or not.

    I'm dragging azz today (Susie and I went out on the town last night/this morning) but I certainly would've helped out.

    When it gets closer to next Saturday, and you know that you'll have off, give me a ring, please.

    See ya soon, hopefully.


    Ed's friend Rick
