    C3 front bumper removal -HELP!!

    When taking the front bumper off the '70, the right corner just turns without backing out.I dont know if this is a welded or caged nut, but regardless the bumper is still on the car.The logical thing seems to be to remove the head of the bolt which would leave me with a headless bolt in a trapped turning nut.
    I want to reuse the bumper so what's the fix, please?

    If it's the bolt that is screwed into the bumper, it is a nut welded onto a bracket. The problem, as you are now aware, is that there is no easy access to the back of the bracket with the bumper on the car. You can remove the bolt head to get the bumper off the car and solve the loose nut problem once the bumper is off the car.
