Where is my rear bumper from??

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone knows or has an opinion on where my rear bumper comes from??

I do not think I have seen one on any other C10's so it could be off something else.

I would love to replace mine with a good one.

Look at the pics below to get an idea of its shape etc.










You can see the dimples on the top of the bumper as well as the dents in it.

Rian - don't know where yours comes from, but I have a brand new chrome rear Sport bumper I'm looking to trade for a white painted one. I was going to vinyl wrap it, or strip the paint and chrome, but if you know of one I'd happily trade

If not, V8Jimmy may still have a new one for sale on Rods'n'Sods..?

Cheers

Hi Barney

Thanks for the reply.

I want to stick to this style. Just want a better one as it works for me. Being the same width as the truck but also having the step and tow ball incorporated.

PS. I have a thread in the Chat section of Rods n Sods on how many C10's in the UK.

Maybe you can look in there and PM anyone who has what you want regarding a trade.

Many times people are open to trades etc.

Thanks Rian - may well do that

If you're looking for another utility bumper I was offered one by 'goat' on R'n'S many moons ago - may be worth dropping him a pm to see if he still has it..?

Cheers

Hi Barney, I am looking for the exact bumper that is on the truck.

The others are lovely, but not what I need.

Don in Arkansas replied earlier on my trucks thread.

Thanks for the photo you texted earlier Don.

Having these iPhones, and having free text and Facetime, really does make life a lot more pleasant, and easy.

These bumpers are lovely, but not what I want, as I need to tow the teardrop trailer.



I will keep on looking for the right one.

Almost 21.00 here, Martin just called to say he was popping over, as Amanda is watching The Deer Hunter on telly.

He and I are looking at buying a deal from Brothers to get our complete suspensions replaced with new shocks and springs.

Just waiting to see what delivery is going to be.

With transport, taxes and duties, the full set per truck, fitted, turns at around $700.00

MAD MAD MAD for spares that would cost $£320.00 fitted in the USA.

Wish someone was flying out with empty suitcases.
