Alternitive rear bumper for 1964 stepside....
 
Hi everyone...1st post.
I just bought a 1964 stepside last week and it doesn't have a rear bumper. I want to do all chrome grille, bumpers, bezels later on but need a rear bumper for now. Has anyone put a rear bumper from an other year chev truck on? I'm comcerned with the width. I'll drill the holes to make it work. Just need something to get me legal.

The 67-72 bumper not only fits, but looks great. The 73-80s bumper will work, too.

I picked up a rear from my dads '57 step side after he switched out to chrome ones. I haven't tried to fit it yet but looks like it should work.

I have this one in my archives. Love the way this looks. I think it's a 67-72 stepside bumper.

Any special mods you need to do for the 67 to fit?
Thanks

No mods required to the bumper, but you'll need the correct 67-72 brackets.

Edit: Oops, I just realized that 64stpside's question was about a STEPSIDE bumper. I can only assume that the bumper is a simple swap, but my experience is with Fleetside bumpers. Hopefully someone will confirm. Sorry.

This could work too. This is an aftermarket step bumper for a square style S10. The narrow bumper fit well on a 67-72 stepside, so since the beds are the same for these years, it might work well here too.
