New bumper and receiver

On my 64 C10 LWB, I had an old step bumper that was fine but it had the wrong brackets and it never sat right. I still wanted the ability to tow and still wanted to look good. Misterc installed a 67-72 bumper on his and I really liked the look. After a ton of questions and extra pictures provided by misterc, I ordered the 67-72 fleet bumper and brackets. Sharps40 had did a write up on installing a universal receiver from Reese. While Sharps sat too low for me (I really wanted it hidden) the kit was universal enough that it should just work. The end result was a great looking bumper and a hidden receiver. My last step will be to get a spring loaded license plate frame so I don't have to remove the plate to tow.
