started taking car apart, problem with bumper
I started taking my car apart the other day for my LT1 swap and painting. Everything seems ok so far except I'm having real problems with the bolts holding the bumper cover to the fender. On the driver's side the very top bolt and on the passenger's side the top two bolts. The nut on these 3 spins, but the bolt also spins. Any tips on how to get these last ones loose?

your gonna have to cut them unless you can get something on the back to hold the head from spinning. its not actually a bolt head but a stud instead. what happens is the stud breaks free from the metal strip its mounted to and spins. it happened on on of mine. i was ablle to grab it with a pair of vise grips and take the nut off that way.
