Re: bumper question
I think most of them will fit it may take some bracket work but they should work. I have seen the mid 90's bumpers on them so I know its possible.

Re: bumper question
Keep an eye on the parts section here.The GMC bumpers have two "dips" in the tops in front of the running lights/turn signals.But,not in`67,they had the same bumper as a 67-70 Chevy.So,you can use the Chevy or any 67-72 GMC and still look original.

Re: bumper question
I bought one from Southern Kentucky parts with the round lights in it for less than $150.00 shipped. They are a Board vendor. Just like the one in the LMC catalog.

Re: bumper question
technicly, the 67 GMC used the chevy bumper. they didn't do the cut outs untill 69 IIRC.
I'm sure you can put almost any trruck bumper on there, but they'll never look right. |

Re: bumper question
Lol!!!! Good point.
I guess it is personal preference. Even though I have never kept anything stock, I guess it all boils down to being beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. Last edited by Longhorn Man; 07-27-2008 at 11:59 AM. |
