Looks better than the welding class projects I see around my town.

Nice bumper, I'd keep it. You definitely have an '80 front clip, too. Looks good!

Re: Custom bumper..anything special?
I would keep it, fill in the space between the bars that form the bumper part, I think it would finish it off nicely.

Re: Custom bumper..anything special?
ok, so the more I pick at this truck, the more I find.....
I knew it had a 1980 front clip with what looks to be a 77-79 grille(?) The bed has fuel doors and that didnt start until '78? It also has spade type fuse block...again '78-up But the vin plate on the door matches the title and license plates.....it's either had a cab swap(doubtful) or the vin plate has been changed. It also looks like the right front frame horn took a hit at one time and was straightened back out(as good as possible) I measured it and it was less than a 16th of an inch difference side to side. It also needs body mount bushings badly. SO I went to pick a part and grabbed headlight bezels and buckets to put round lights on..now I have to get the lower valance tomorrow. I also need to get an engine harness..... But it does have a new engine....010 block(early) and 993 heads....and a new clutch....so for $800 I dont think I will complain too much
