Hello all

Been thinking, I have a 1975 corvette L-82 that needs body work - not worried about numbers matching or anything. I'm a big fan of the chrome bumpers of pre 73, any ideas or thoughts on fitting them to a 75? How well do the parts interchange? Maybe someone with both styles could be able to give me the differences in the two ends of the car between years? I know many would say it'd probably just be easier to get a 68-72, but I have a 75 and got it for a VERY good price last year. If its a lot of work to do, then I liek the rear much better on the pre 73 vettes - maybe do a early rear with new front like the 73 ... or maybe the other way around?? - just tossing around ideas to make her look better.

Thanks all, Kevin

They don't, at all. The front and rear body panels are all different, and there are significant differences in the front and rear of the frame as well.
