Re: rear bumper question

That's a "sport" bumper.. they were stock and available on 73-87s..

I have a picture of one on a 77/78... but it is not a good picture as I could not get a good "rear" shot.

Re: rear bumper question

Re: rear bumper question

Welcome to the forum nerphin. Guys, Jeff is correct. That is a 67-72 sport bumper, not a 73-80. To answer your question nerphin, I don't know if I have ever seen that bumper on a 73-87 truck.
