I'm not sure that the "HOLE" theory applies to my 79 ... the holes on mine sure look like a pair of tin snips made them and mine was not destine for the US from day one .. it was prepped to be sold at a dealer in Milano .. then in 85 it went to the US. Those bumpers look to much like a mid 70's car.... big bumpers.
