1966 Cutlass. Turn signals low on the ends of the bumper. Oblong openings in the bumper under the headlights on each side in which the turn signals are located and extending to the license plate cut-out.
1967 Cutlass. Turn signals located between the headlights. One long opening in the bumper between (not under) the headlights. No cut-out for the license plate, which was mounted to a separate bracket mounted to the bumper in states where a front plate was required.

Quite rite ol chap
Core sups interchange but 67 has c rings to suppory inboard headlight/housing
I believe Hood latches and fans are interchangeable
but as long as we're on this subject I really need that 66 front hood trim that is uncracked
now when you're done laughing and you have one you can part with let me know
thank you

Are the outer peaks on the 66 bumpers supposed to match the peaks on the fenders? My front bumper looks unmodified or damaged but the bumper is 3/8” too wide on both sides it also hangs out so far on the outside you can tighten the bumper bolts from the outside. Looks terrible and short of cutting 3/4” out of the middle and welding it together I can’t see any other way to fix it. It has already been plated.

bumper to fender alignment
Yes rubber filler on bumper fills gap in but fenders go over the bumper
Wide bumper on rechromed unit is most likely result of those who straightened it not complying with factory specs allowing all parts to fit all cars
How are gaps between hood & fenders ?
If bodys overall dimension it at minimum & bumper is at max,
They still look good..
Are fenders aftermarket or repaired ?
How many shims between core
support & fenders?
Is core support damadged ?
Freemont cars front ends may not have interchangeable front end parts with cars made elsewhere also..,
If you can shim each fender out an eighth ,
Bump sheetmetal an eighth & reduce each side of bumpers overall an eighth
Your dead nuts.,.
Removing 3/4 from bumper will be solving the symptom of the problem
