[Mgs] Bumper Conversion

[James Kleemeyer]

Just from holding up the guards to the bumpers I have ('68, '70, '74) the 
cross section of the bumpers looks pretty close to the same to me, at least 
close enough that the filler strips would take up any difference. Of course, 
I'm assuming the rear bumper on the '74 is original since it still has the 
Sabrina guards and the unique one piece bracket. 'Course, I've been wrong 
before!

BTW, why are there two different rubber buffer  guards? Is there a 
difference in years, or what?
