I am starting the process of going Old School with my bumpers. I have a 76 and I am buying a older rear from Kevin this weekend. I have read the posts about this process (not much info) so I am asking if anyone has done this could they give me some tips. I don’t know how much work is involved retrofitting the older bumpers. Any help would be appreciated.

Good morning guys, The front bumpers have no real supports like the rear. The rear bumper has a small support that sticks out from the body just above where the lic plate is located. The rear top bumper rubber has a threaded stud sticking out of it that fits into that support. I have not had a problem with the center support not being present on the cars that I have retro fitted. The four bolts that you secure into the chrome bumpers are what hold the bumper on. The center support is only for the top bumper rubber and unless you have one that has no inner steel( you can't see it so don't worry about it) then it will stay in place.
