WTB Rear Bumper (complete or right/pass. side half)

[boonies]

I have a complete rear bumper on my 1972, but it has had some damage on the passenger side half at some point prior to my purchase.

My choices are to have it stripped, straightened and re-chromed or to find a nice driver quality rear bumper, either complete or right side half. I have lights in my bumper and will want the same.

Please reach out via PM with pictures and prices. Thanks in advance.

Can you post an image of yours so we can get a sense of what you have and want to improve on?

Good idea, here we go.


1st picture: Driver's side for comparison (pardon the mess)

2nd picture: Passenger side - note the difference in the gap between the two sides.

3rd picture: note the nylon spacer that someone has inserted between the bumper and the body

4th picture: Driver's side from below, shows the consistent gap between bumper and body

5th picture: Passenger side from below -

6th picture: damage on bumper - perhaps the cause of the interference with the body?

7th picture: passenger side from the front...

8th picture: Close-up of the nylon disk, some body damage present

9th picture: more of the disk

Here are some pics of what I have. It actually looks good from 5 feet away. The bracket has been repaired for correct fit, single contour divot as shown in the second pic. I got it as part of a group of parts. $80 bucks plus shipping which is around 50 bucks. Been in my basement for 2 years so I want it gone. Where are you located as a close friend who lives in Fountainville PA will be visiting at end of Jan, if close and you want it, I can give it to him and save shipping. Happy NY, Rob.

NB: The galvanized strip to hold the rubber part may not be on correctly. If not, let me know, I can remount it as I have a rivet gun.
