All About 60-66 Bumper Guards? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I know that 60-62 and 63-63 are different, but what exactly is different? Anyone have pics of the back sides that show how they mount? I'm looking for a pair for my '66 and was wondering if I could modify a pair from 60-62 and make them fit? I'll be cutting them down 2-3" shorter and having them rechromed, so cutting and welding isn't a problem.

the shape of a 60-62 bumper is a litttle different than the 63-66, along with the bolt holes being a little closer together.

FYI. The repop bumper guards fit the repop bumpers terribly.
BUT they fit an original bumper great!!! As far as 64-66
