Sport Bumper Question
Hi guys,
I am new to the site. I have owned my 67 chevy truck for about 6 months. I am wanting to put a sport bumper on my truck but I am finding that these are hard to come by. My question is can you buy an aftermarket sport bumper and the brackets for a swb fleetside truck and if their is an aftermarket version how does it fit? Thanks in advance for the help. |

Re: Sport Bumper Question
Welcome to the board.
Yes both bumper and brackets are available in reproduction parts. Classic Parts of America sells both.

Re: Sport Bumper Question
They fit and look great. I would recommend Brothers, they have tripe chrome plated bumpers with a lifetime warranty against pitting and peeling.

Re: Sport Bumper Question
Yes, I'm using Brothers bumpers. If I had an original one I would have the rechromed.

Re: Sport Bumper Question
Welcome to the board from just down the road in Lyman. Let's see a picture of that 67. I'm curious to see if it's a truck that I looked at it when I was looking for my truck - purchased in December. Good Luck!

Re: Sport Bumper Question
I have aftermarket front and rear bumpers. They are one of the few aftermarket parts that fits like it should.
