1971 front end
Hi im.ignacio not an expert but buy what I need and little extra. I bought a front end bumper with grills head lights and chrome rings for my 1970 formula as an extra or to hang in garage. I think it looks cool it is I believe 71 unit been in garage for 30 plus years and headlights are power bean. I was told they stock. I'll probably just store them done want them to break. I noticed it doesn't have an emblem on bumper so I'm thinking it's trans am!

Be aware that there were Canadian spec Power Beams that were a bit different in appearance from U.S. spec.

I have been buying up power beams when they have been available at a reasonable price... Quote:
1) with holes for bumper emblem; Esprit and Formula 2) without holes for bumper emblem; base and Trans Am The 1972 bumper was exactly the same as the 1970/1971 type 2 bumper.

In 72 and 3, NO Firebirds had an emblem on the Nose. Some early Esprits had just ONE sport mirror too... Base birds the chrome style mirror was available on pass side as an option. ( also a dealer kit was available)
