Brush Guard ?

Posting these pics for member RedRoad who asked about a brush guard I have. Not sure if this is home built or a mfg'd guard but it is heavy duty for sure. Strap material is 1 1/2'' wide and 3/8'' thick, the wire seems to be expanded metal mesh. Not sure how much it weighs but it is very stout. The bends and welds don't look to be home built style but who knows. Don't find any logo or numbers.

Re: Brush Guard ?

I do see a resemblance to the pic you show. Guess I will throw it up on the parts board and see if there is any interest to it.

Can you post a side pic of where it mounts to the bumper? Does the guard bow in the center or is it straight across?

Re: Brush Guard ?

Blazerman, pics as requested. Hope they show what you need, can do more if interested. Top bar is not straight, has a 1'' deep from 0 angle, the mounts have 1'' elongated mount holes at 6'' center to center. Upright bars are measure 25 1/2'' center to center at munt points. Listed it this morning in the 67-72 parts forum with preferred local pickup.
