I don't have the bumper but do have the bumper brackets. PM me if you need them.

That rear bumper is a real tough one to find. I looked for 25 years before I found one I could repair, plate and use, due to the fact it only fits the pickup and wagon (which is what I have). They came on all the wagons but were an option on the pickup.

"donn000,

"I see you are a relatively new barner but Come on guys please play by the rules and use the classifieds section ,you will have better luck there."
In a way both observations are correct but in a way they're not. I'm not a lurker nor a seller on the Swap Meet forum and for the sake of discussion "deuce roadster's" observation about the availability (news to me) of these bumpers might have not been known had donn000 not posted his request on this forum. I can understand the need for keeping this Forum focused on getting the word out about our Early V8s and not cluttering it up with classifieds but sometimes the only way to get a message out about a specific part need or a service is to post the message here where everyone can eyeball it and share their knowledge. JMO and with no intent to generate a controversy...
