I got a pick-part junkyard bumper off a 62 Chevy p.u. and it doesn't fit my 3/4 '66 GMC- the 4 bolt holes are different, just a little off, otherwise it's the same bumper. What gives?!!!

60-62 bumpers are a different fit from 63-66 bumpers on Chevy and GMC. The rear bumpers are also different because the 60-62 frames are wider at the rear.
