  1. Body Restoration
    Greetings. I began by replacing a tail light bulb, which drove me down a rabbit hole to completely remove my rear bumper. Finding more rust than metal, I did what any foolish person would do, and made a fix. "Buy once, cry once" is applicable, as this will only be temporary (4-5 years, or until...

    Does anyone have a full width OEM impact strip that will fit on my 85 front bumper? At a price that doesn't compare to just buying a new front bumper without the holes. I've read comments that say the Eckler impact strip doesn't lay very well and end up looking poor. Maybe the newer...

    Getting ready to put my '77 in the body shop for restoration. (47,000 original miles with 350) Need a clean, straight hood. Would like to have clean doors and rear quarters. Will consider a nice rear bumper if cheaper than re-chroming mine. Need to get the parts to coastal SC. Thank you.

  5. Body Restoration
    I am working a 68 and I have most of the trim from the bed and both front and rear bumpers. The trim is pitted and both bumpers have some dings and pitting. My question is whether it is better to just buy replacement pieces or to have the originals restored? Not sure how much more expensive...

    Got hit in the rear and found that there was some damage I could not see. I can handle the bumper the way it is (unless I can find one in better shape) but I need the energy absorber on the left side. Several other parts the shop says are discontinued so am looking for the bumper, right and...

    Hi gang- made the mistake of thinking a light pole would move when it saw me coming and now I'm repairing the LF of my '68 El Camino. I need the LF bumper brackets since I had to cut one of them off. I'd really rather not have to buy and store half of a set if someone has the pair I need...

  11. Body Restoration
    Trying to make some decisions on paint color and was considering powder coating (Black) my front & rear bumpers along with all the other trim. Has anyone seen a 4th gen w/ painted/powder coated bumpers? How did it look? I spent some time scrolling through all of the gallery pics for both 3rd...
  12. Body Restoration
    1968 tailgates have the back up lights in the bumpers, but 69-72 have them in the tailgate i think. i have only found 68 rear bumpers that fit my 70. is it correct for them to have the backup light holes in the bumper even thought they are really in the tailgate? where can i get a 70 rear bumper...
