Re: bumper boyz

[MrChristopher1@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I went through this delema too, Neal.  I got a fiberglass front bumper and will do the eastwood thing or maybe using one of the plastic chroming type of places.  Include the time spent doing the finish work to the bumper before sending it off or trust them to "magically" match your specific body lines,  You'll still be in under what it cost to get my '64 bumper straightened, rechromed plus the shipping.  It's crazy isn't!
So questions I asked were; Is this a concourse resto?  No.  Is it a show car?  No, but want it nice enough to show up at a local cruise-ins or car shows and look clean and presentable.  So is it a Drag Car?  Yes!  How much street time will it see?  Less the 10%.  Ok, so do you need to Have a shiney, "brighter then the sun" front bumper?
