Sold my Single-Cab, bought a Ragtop, sold the Ragtop and FINALLY bought something that I am totally in love with.................

If anyone`s got a rear bumper for it I`d be interested.
Cheers
Graham.

Nice ride! (OK, I'm prejudiced.)

A '76 rear bumper sold today on E-Bay for $16.50...

Thats a nice ride:thumb


57 Chook Shed - March 1st, 2004 at 09:55 PM

It`s an early Bay bumper that I need, preferably with the Deluxe trim to match the front.
Yeah, pretty chuffed with it, not bad for a $3000 Adelaide special.
Cheers
Graham.

I need one too but for a 69 van and also the one you are after may need to be a 90 degree corner ute only special even harder to find but you would get away with a van one..........or was that only for splitscreens maybe.

My latest is a 71 crew.. I think it was this colour too.. I don't pick it up till next week.. Chook.. Your one is a pre 73 (I think) by the low indicators.. Looks in great nick!!.. Can I ask price range?


StenGuns - March 2nd, 2004 at 03:53 PM

Sorry Graham.. Just read the rest of the threads and answered my own questions (still on L-plates).. I have a rear bumper for a 72 Deluxe bus which is the wrap around one.. Don't know if they fit the Dual cab..
I was going to put this on my deluxe but as it is now possibly going to a graveyard (hit by jeep).. I may get rid of it.. I had it straightened and primed.. Still with all the brackets and trims etc..

Once I know about my deluxe (and if your still looking for one).. I'll give you a shout..

Thanks Rob, I`m really interested.
I`m not sure of the colour but it`s similar to Gulf Blue but was that a Splitty only colour???
Cheers
Graham.

Looks like a 72 like mine. I have'nt got a rear bumper on mine either.

The 72 bumpers are as hard to find as rocking horse shit. The 68 to 71 model bumpers have different mounting points and as a result need modifications to fit. The 73 onwards are a different shape alltogether.

Only a 72 kombi model bumper will bolt straight on.

Nice CrewCab by the way. A steal for $3000.

Graham..
I checked the paint codes on this link and think my 71 Crew cab was delta green.. When I pick it up (tomorrow.. yeee haaa!!!), I'll try and figure the m-codes..

I personally like the elm green, (that is if I was to paint it in an original colour).. My wife likes candy apple red and my assistant at work wants electric blue.. Go figure..

Anycase.. if you haven't seen this link before it may help in colour selection.. They don't have after 71 yet.. I have seen some other site which has all the paint codes and I will try and find it.. for what it's worth..
