Plymouths are easy bumper goes on last with brackets attached. Now I'm looking at a freshly painted 69 Charger bumper, brackets, bumperetts and lower valence. In what order would they go together so I don't have to redo it three times :icon_smile_big:
It's been a while but I think it's grille assembly, bumper then valence
Yep. Start with the grille assembly (complete as a chunk) and work down.
Don't miss the grille frame attachments out at the side ends, where it bolts to the inside of the fenders.
I just re-assembled the front end on my '69 and agree with the comments so far. Grill -> Bumper -> Valance. The bumper can be installed with all the brackets and that's how I would recommend to do it, just don't torque any of the bolts until it's in place and you're happy with the fit. Also be very careful not to catch any parts of the grill with the bumper since the bumper sits over the lower plastic lip of the grill. The valance is a little fiddly to get to all the bolts with it in place but it's not too bad.
Thanks for the input, the grill is in and when my daughter gets here Friday the bumpers go on. Its her car and wants involved in the build so I get things lined up for her visits.

Come on Man! I did get the bumpers on and I can work on more than one at a time. Might end up with a Mark Donahue Charger though :smilielol:
Mine's a 68, but this might be beneficial anyway.

Edit: I just saw that you have it installed already...this might help out some others though.
