That u-shaped "spring" welded to the US 405 bumper "shock" is mild steel!
What a joke.
I have a line on about 20 new parts cars, 405 and late 505. I don't know
exactly what they are yet, but there's a pretty good chance of a 91 405 being
in there. It may take a few weeks to cut the deal though, and get them here.
If I get them, I am going to drastically drop my used parts prices, because
I won't have to fear running out of them, and they aren't costing me much.
