    hey thanks for posting that.. ok i see the differance. (y) i guess we can call 73 big mouth valances!

    you have an e-mail

    gee i guess 73 owners are just SOL on the front of these cars. hence they should be worth more since there was only one year they did bumpers and lower front valances! i offically claim 73 mavericks rare and worth more! :D

    or maybe i should only make 73s and be selfish!:D

    ok last question what about rears? are they differant on 73's from prior years like the fronts?

    also on front valances do they all mount the same from 69 to 72? ... again i just need to be sure before i take this on.

    another thing maverick75 just pointed out to me is that this valance has a a place for the license to mount?

    1970-1972 Rear Valences are the same. 1973 is slightly different....but only along the mounting tab at the top. I think you could make the 1970-1972 style and everybody would be happy.

    I could live with a dimple or something where the licence plate holes go.
    The stock pans have inserts for the screws to go into on the rear plate area.
    You put a dimple, I drill the hole and put a locking nut on the back of the plate screws.
