[DeTomaso] Headlight bucket / opening dimensions???

[Larry Finch]

Headlight buckets changed at VIN 2729, early 1972.

IIRC, common belief is the earlier buckets, and thus openings, were smaller than the later buckets.

I believe the difference is most easily seen in the width of the fender panel (between the bucket opening and the outer trunk edge)
immediately inboard of the bucket opening.


Does anyone have … true … dimensions of the two versions of the buckets and openings?

I say true in that unless you have full history of your car, unknown to you both fenders or just one fender may have been previously replaced.

Bueller???

Thanks,

Larry
