I am in the process of relieving my 74 of the original bumpers and have set of 72 bumpers that i'm installing. I've searched to no avail so posting here. Could anyone provide the measurement for approximately how far out the front bumper sits from the front of the car? Also, precisely where are the fender mounting holes located? The mounts I have allow me to slide it in or out as needed so trying to dial it in as precisely as possible.

I found some great pictures and measurements for the rear but wasn't able to track this info down for the front.

Unfortunately I can’t help you, but I am interested in the answers. I have a 73 with euro bumpers and they are mounted incorrectly.

This is a 74 retrofitted with early bumpers. Measured from sheet metal to bumper.

Rear 1/2”, side 6” wheel well to bolt center at the line between paint and chipguard under the paint. This is a retrofit.
