Re: 60-66 rear bumper ideas

I know OP is probably looking for something a bit more flashy, custom, or sporty, but if had the skills, I would make me one of these bumpers:





Call me old-fashioned, but when it comes to a truck, functionality and utility before all else.

I wonder if the trailer hitch is still functional.

Re: 60-66 rear bumper ideas

I'm going to put the wraparound step bumper back on mine, after a whole bunch of sandblasting and a little straightening.

Re: 60-66 rear bumper ideas

MY 66 with a 67-72 rear bumper on it. Used 67-72 brackets. Had to drill new holes in the 66 frame to make them work but it snugs up nice and tight.

I've got big bumpers
I've got big bumpers
And they're such big bumpers
And their fancy big bumpers
And he's got big bumpers
And she's got big bumpers
But we've got the biggest bumpers of them all!
