Which bumper Fits best

Post by Papac3 »

I have been reading old posts on using a Ford bumper on the front of my 62. I am a a bit confused on the length and fitment. I see where a 67-72 front bumper is used. This one seems to be 1 and a quarter inches longer than the original. The 73-79 rear bumper suggested for the front is 3 inches shorter. Has anyone used either of these and how does the fit look? I can purchase these for a lot less than having the original painted bumper chromed. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

The '67-'72 ford bumpers will work with bracket mod's. Type in "ford bumpers" in the search box at the top of this section and find discussions on this topic. :Thumbsup
