Anyone know where I can get period correct bumpers for my 67? I'm looking for the square cut chrome bumpers with the bumper guards, thanks matt

Good luck with that. I've been looking for real back bumpers without the front bumperett holes for years.?:?

that has been a problem also. I thought LMC or NPD carried the correct one's, going to give them a call today.

Would all '67's have had them then? I thought that was an early model year change to the newer, angled style?

Guess you've checked in the classifieds and no joy there either?
Not a common part for sale I wouldn't think. But new? Never seen 'em.

Not likely to see them from Dynacorn any time soon, as they're selling theirs as an all years replacement with the later style.

The later style EB bumpers have been available for ages through the general body part suppliers, but I've never seen an early one there either.
Probably too low a demand for them to tool up.

How're your fab skills? Guessing it wouldn't be too easy to make an old one out of a new one. But maybe not impossible?

Good luck.

the other downfall is the holes in the middle of the bumpers. Your almost better off buying crappy chrome ones, filling the holes then have them re-chromed, cha-ching
