It was kind of tricky finding the right angles with multiple tries I figured out that I would just make a tool which is a t stand and I made a bracket to cradle the bumper and I can move it up or down but I also put it on my two post...

    49 Cad bumper on a 46 olds I am using a 46 cad bumper but it is to narrow so I butchered another 49 Cad bumper. I cut 1" sections and grafted them in to widen it by 2 inches. Still got to finish the other side.

    This project is getting crazy especially when it comes to fitting the front clip onto the Camaro subframe. The radiator core support was cut to fit around the steering box.
