Reconstructed the frame horns and installed a new bumper.

Re: Got Bumper?
Thanks guys! Now I have to decide if I'm going to put one on the rear...it never seems to end.

Re: Got Bumper?
Bumpers assume one is going to have a bump......
...which one will! I like the new look too. My truck has painted bumpers and I am either going to go with painted bumper guards or a full grill guard. |

Re: Got Bumper?
Looks much better IMO. How do you like the headlights with the turn signals in them. I'm planning to ditch my 71 bumper with the signal lights and go with the 67-70 style bumper as well. Need to come up with something for turn signals.

Re: Got Bumper?
So far so good with the signals in the headlights. Forgot what brand I got, but they have been holding up. I upgraded the headlight wiring with relays at the same time.

Re: Got Bumper?
Thanks. When I bought it, it was all dark or navy blue. I took a shot at painting the white. Paint job is a 40 footer.
