    Guys here is an update on the 71 Grabber that we got for my son off Ebay. Remember the 71 that for some reason someone converted to a Big Bumper.:huh: Here is the before & after. Besides converting back to small bumpers we reupholstered a set of LDO seats & installed. We also redid the door panels. Next will be the headliner. The door panels turned out pretty good also. We added a little foam & put a little Saddle stitch around the edge. My son (Jason) is very proud.:bouncy:

    I never could figure out why someone switched those bumpers unless they had totalled one in the past with small bumpers!
