View Full Version : 69 f-b question
zigman Mar 25th, 06, 02:39 PM well the car is almost done, i posted 2 pics in the showroom, anyway, i have this one rubber, it's round and about an inch thick with a threaded stud on it, i got the car in a "box" so i dont know where it goes, as far as the rest, a lot of research went into this because nothing was bagged and tagged so it took a long time to get the bolts for the right holes,this rubber though? any help would be appreciated,after all isnt a firebird a glorified camaro?:thumbsup:

69inpieces Mar 26th, 06, 11:25 AM That would be a gusset bumper and you should have two of them. Without them your gussets will sag, gotta hate that.
zigman Mar 26th, 06, 11:32 AM what's a gusset bumper and where does it go??
69inpieces Mar 26th, 06, 11:38 AM It mounts between the upper bumper bar and the gusset.
zigman Mar 26th, 06, 12:21 PM i'm confused lol

Scroll down to the 69 and look at #28 and then let me know what questions you may still have. I have the front off of one right now and I could walk you through it.
zigman Mar 26th, 06, 07:59 PM hmmm , i do need them 2 gussets they are missing, that's unfortunately not what i have ,it's just got the stud through the one end,i was looking through the ames catalogue hoping to find it , i must have missed it though cause i didnt see it, i'll take another look in the books tomorrow, maybe the assembly manual i have might have it ,but that's like looking for a needle in a haystack, cause of all the illustrations they have in the manual
69inpieces Mar 26th, 06, 09:55 PM I have one that only has the stud coming through one side, it was rusted and snapped off. lol Post or send me a picture when you can. If that is not it, it may not belong to the car.
zigman Mar 28th, 06, 06:09 PM hey guys,i seen a part number on it, it's fo 49
