Dynacorn 1529 Front Valance Panel, 1969 Pontiac GTO

This Dynacorn 1529 front valance panel is built for the 1969 Pontiac GTO and replaces the lower front panel beneath the grille and bumper. What it is Dynacorn, a supplier of classic muscle car sheet metal that has been in business since 1984, cut this valance's tooling to be new rather than worn, with the goal of a direct-style fit at the factory mounting points. A front valance like this typically bolts in below the grille opening and ties the front bumper, fenders, and lower grille surround together, so it is usually one of the last front-end panels installed during a restoration. Before you install it Test-fit the valance against the bumper brackets, grille surround, and front fenders before final paint, since panel gaps at these joints are easier to shim and adjust before the finish coat goes on. Because this panel mounts low on the car and is exposed to road debris, make sure any drain or mounting holes line up with the car's existing hardware, and treat any raw cut edges to resist corrosion before final assembly. Confirm the car is a 1969 GTO specifically, since Pontiac valance shapes changed from year to year even within the same body generation.
