Can anyone help with this

 

I have been advised the LC didnt have this holes in the front valance - I have had a new front end put on the car as part of the rebuild.

 

Can anyone confirm this is the case so I can get them welded up / patched up

 

cheers

No only LJ I believe.

The cut outs are for the later type stone tray bracing.

Weld them up and if you want to run a stone tray, an earlier type without bracing will still fit.

Also make sure your bumper steels go into slots not a square hole. They normally need welding up too.

Early LJs before the adr change were same as LCs no holes, no extra bracing on stone tray.

Thanks Marty

I am unsure what you mean about this - where should the slots be?

Thanks Adam - they will be welded up

The later fronts have a square hole to allow for bigger bumper iron. LCs need to look like this.
