Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Vertical Bumper guards: Gremmies/Hornets

Yup there was some goofiness in there. I usually just point people to the 
AMC color catalog covers or 1973
http://www.planethoustonamx.com/parts/73_NOS_CC.jpg
1974
http://www.planethoustonamx.com/parts/74_NOS_CC.JPG
and 1975
http://www.planethoustonamx.com/parts/75nosccwpacer.jpg
 for instance. There was a nice red 73 Hornet four door on ebay a few weeks 
ago and all these people were emailing him telling him it was not a 73 
'because of the bumpers' so had to clear that up although I am not a Hornet 
expert!

The front bumper you had on your 73 was the beginning of what the books call 
WESC (if I recall from memory!) those are those slow impact cylinders shown 
in the photo I just sent. I do not know however if the design of the bumper 
itself changed from 73 to 74, only going by what is in the AMC catalogs.
