...Love the chassis pic! So those two ears at the top with the holes in them are NOT supposed to be bent forward over the edge of the valance? Hmmmm!!!!
I noticed that too! I thought they were flimsy recover hooks. Mine are bent foward over the valance
That car had a major restoration done in the 80s and I think they bent those "recovery hook tabs" back flush with the rails. I think they were originally bent forward towards the front valance like the rest of ours.
