Default making progress on resto...got some ?s!

alright fellas i got her home and in the garage...(pics soon) and i have ripped the whole interior out except for the dash and column...couple ?s...good news! from the birdcage ive been able to see, no rust! except for surface that can be sanded away, but hey who doesnt have that, but no penetration!

the electric panel on the back of the guage plate for the factory guages (oil psi,gas etc) can it be used with aftermarket ones? instead of having to run new lines for sending units?

where are the bolt points for the front end? it has been tapped 1 time and i need to go ahead and remove it to make sure its ok and have more room to work...

How do you remove the rear bumper? ive got the tailights out and i want to go ahead and remove this bumper to get it in a safe spot from the items in the garage...

Hi Kyle,
Look up behind the bumper and you'll see all the bolts holding the rear bumper on.
