If you have anything around with no backing or crappy/rusted backing could weld that backing on another skin. Did that with a rear bumper before with success.

Havent really saw much info but in general are 67 galaxy bumpers both front and back a waste of time on a box vic and yes you can weld, stuff, etc. Can get them next to nothing but i dont want to waste time

How do the 05 town car bumpers hold up? Good to put on the rear and hold the rails together. That's about it. |

are any of the 80s gm(or any 80+) bumpers comparable to 80s ford bumpers? We can run any metric bumper, but it must remain stock(can cut ears) and weld shock/6x6 1/4" plate to mount. Its getting hard to find a clean ford front that isn't $150-200.

Ok thanks for the feed back, wasnt sure they arent steel backed but they do have those little pieces of steel in back. ill pull it off and save it for a show that allows loading and steel added to bumpers. |

As i read nobody is having any luck with the dec bumpers? Been tossing it around for a few days about getting one since bumpers r getting harder to find.

I would just get a little bit better built bumper from someone else, not disrespecting dec, he is a good guy and I have bought couple sets of headers from him but I don’t think the bumpers would hold up as good as some others. It’s also not super hard to build your own, just material cost. Lots of options out there.
