American bumpers are the same basic stamping front and back. Fronts have 6 bolt holes in the face; rears have 4 bolt holes in the face and one in each end. Some early bumpers had no backup light holes. They would be good candidates for reproduction because one stamping could be used for both, with varying bolt holes for front or back.

I emailed AMD and got a prompt reply - they don't expect to have any made before the beginning of next year.

Thanks.  The car won't be ready for them until spring anyway, so that's good timing.

I would bet that owners of BB cars would pay the price for the chrome if you left those bumpers raw metal, as it is a PITA to remove the chrome to paint the bumpers for BB cars. You would still get your full price without the cost of chrome and those needing bumpers to paint would save the cost of removing the chrome.



Pat,
We've talked about doing the Big Bad bumpers. I'm not sure that will happen, but I wouldn't rule it out yet.

Alan


Un-plated/un-painted seems like a no brainer to help pay for the cost of the tooling to make them. These days there are a lot more than just the owners of Big Bad color cars that want to paint there bumpers the same color as their cars.

Ha, yeah but now days you see more and more muscle cars going to painted and body color bumpers than in the old days where chrome was king.

History seems to come around every few years. Seems we humans just keep going back to the basics. Then go wild and say hey do I need that ?
