    Todd, question on the front bumper bracket to frame bolts. Are they carriage bolts?

    Jason,

    Buick used both but as shown in the photo they're showing a hex bolt with 2 Conical Toothed Washers so that is what my kits have.

    I can supply the Carriage style as well although to date nobodies requested them - mainly due to them "spinning" in the frame while being tightened.
    I believe most like being able to put a socket on each end when tightening.

    Either is correct and available . . . .

    Todd FYI,
    Flint used the carriage bolts

    GMAD used the regular bolt and washer set-up with the extra “toothed” washer.

    It shows this right on the diagram you posted. It even shows the extra washer for the GMAD only cars.

    I know they did this for 69-72.

    That’s fine.

    If you label your sets Flint and GMAD, and ask your customers where their cars were built, you should save a lot on returns. Plus you could help educate the public with something they may not have been aware of.

    You will also alleviate a bunch of problems on the show field, as the bumper-frame bolts are one of the things we look at.

    Just trying to help.
