Hi All, Well I am getting ready for the road with my project. Sure has been interesting finding things for the GT. Now one more thing, The front bumpers. Any one out there have a pair? Even a good picture would do wonders. Thanks for looking, Smokinporter PS Hello all, 1/22/2016 Just an update, I just completed the bumper problem, I did as Gary recommended and installed the bumper tubes I than installed a early 54-57 euro style bumper blade, it looks AOK and solves the Illinois front bumper rule. So thanks all who helped and did the forum good, Smokinporter |

Yep the ones used on the GT. They may not do much good, but they would make me legal here in Illinois. Let me know what you would need to part with them. Thanks for writing, Wes aka smokinporter |

Hi, Gary,
Great idea on those bumper tabs. Love it. My bumpers and tubes are spot-welded to prevent rotation of the bumper, and flat tabs are welded onto the rear of the tubes where they bolt through the chassis and body, to prevent tube rotation. My spot-welds are functional, but your tabs allow quick removal of the bumpers without having to remove the tubes. Simple and brilliant, my friend. I'll have to do that if I'm still alive if a seventh rebuild should eve be needed.
Warmest regards,
|

Hi Jeff,  Thanks. Sometimes I come up with a good idea. LOL  It takes all the shake and misalignment out of them, which was a problem with only the through bolts shown in the instruction manual. Gary Hammond,  |
