65 wrong bed rear bumper

My 65 frame off restoration is coming together nicely, however I hate the "wrap around" rear bumper on my bed, It wraps around and bolts to the rear fender well on each side, Can anyone tell me what year I could find a rear bumper that won't wrap around and have the same bolt/mounts?.

Here's a pic

The step bumper on your truck is aftermarket, not genuine Ford.

No genuine Ford bumper will use the same mounts. Most aftermarket step bumpers have the brackets welded to the bumper.

How about cutting the ears off of the existing bumper?
