After Leo Fender sold Fender to CBS he stayed on as a design consultant and created the 3-Bolt neck with tilt adjustment as an improvement over the original 4 bolt neck that had no tilt adjustment other than using shims. Fender CBS's production quality, specifically the mismatch of the neck pocket size to the neck heel, resulted in an unstable neck attachment much of the time and gave the 3 bolt neck a bad reputation. Leo later proved the 3 bolt neck worked if done properly with his G&L Guitars.

How do you hang front fender on 1976 corvette?

The fender is glued on about 3 in. down on the side at top. bolts on at bottom and on the front bumper. To break the fender lose at the top and off of the inner fender well use a puddy knife and a lot of care. After you remove fender sand the bonding strips and trial fit the new fender in place. Clamp it in place and draw lines so you can install in the same place. Remove fender. Put bonding glue on the bonding strips and on the inner fender. Put the fender back in place using the lines that you drew to line it back up. Clamp in place. Bolt the bumper back to fender and at the bottom. Wipe excess bonding glue off the fender and top surround and wait to dry. Sand and prep for paint. It know where as easy as bolt off and on and paint. Its A lot of time and work. Hope this helps
