Post your BUMPER pics!!
Hi, trying to get some ideas for a front and rear bumper on my '56 panel truck. I have the originals, (freshly chromed), but I'm looking for a different look. I want go with a bumper to accent the satin black sinister
look I have planned. I'm thinking like an old type wrecker bumper in the front like I've seen in some pics. I would like to see some pics of bumpers you guys have used...can be custom or off other vehicles like jeeps, etc...Thanks for you time,
James

By far the best looking bumper to modify and install on a f100!

Not sure, the picture is pretty small. Looks like a conglomeration of a few models...given the location of the grille "fangs" and the angle of the bumper I'd have to say that this treatment could use some refinement, IMHO.

Here's what I started out with;
I can't find a pic of what I'm running now, but its a common chrome step bumper that I picked up at the wrecking yard. I think it came of a small truck, Ranger, S-10, etc. I don't know I found it laying on the ground and only had to give $20 for it.
