At any point do the body bushing bolts pass through those tabs on the valance? I can't recall but I know taking those bolts out were a major PITA.

Yall are lucky..
I live in Va and I have been looking around places around here for parts for my ride. I have found a few but everybody wants a arm and leg for anything off of them. For example: I found a lund sunvisor on a truck it was in good shape. The owner at the yard told me $125 for just the visor. I had about 3 heart attacks in a row. I kinda politely told him that it was a little steep on the price for me and he was like it dont matter to me whatever dont sell gets scrapped either way. The way I look at it I wont be going back there.

Its really sad that all these nice vehicles that people took for the cash for clunkers deal but nothing we can do about it now...Maybe if we all get together and get the junk license we would be in good shape. hehe

The only 73-87(91)'s impacted by the clunker thing were 85-91.  SEMA lobbied to get cars eligible for antique tags (25 years +) removed and won, so if it it a pre-85, it wasn't part of the clunker thing.

The valance bolts to the fenders. Those tabs on the 89-91 valance are for the grill.

Can I get a confirmation on this? The tabs on the valance I believe are for the core support and not the grille. I looked at my grille piece the other day and it does not have any provision at the bottom to bolt to anything unless I missed something?

Also, if the 89-91 core support needs those tabs to secure it in place, why does the 88-older core support and grille assembly not need them? Just curious if I can get away with using the one I have or not......
