Now that’s different

But I like it. Copied this from Facebook, 69 Stingray bumper.

It’s not my truck, just sharing. I thought about coping it but the price of those bumpers is more than I want to pay right now. I did see a reasonably priced set of fiberglass units but to me, chromed looks a lot better.

I bought a smoothed chrome bumper while ago.

Re: Now that’s different

Looks like Corvette bumpers and I too saved the photos as it looks pretty clean. Pretty expensive to buy new to cut up to put on an AD truck though.

Re: Now that’s different

This truck shows up at Vintiques every year and has what looks like an early 90's Grill bar for a bumper.

Re: Now that’s different

I dig it. I always thought the rear bumpers were too wide to begin with. I'd like to narrow my 54 bumper, but that is cool.

I like it. Looks like it was made for it.

Not sure about the size or contour, but a '63 Tempest/Lemans front or rear bumper would complement it stylistically.
