Depending on where you live, your state may require front and rear plates.

The only option from LMC like that has filled plate holes but the indention in the center is still there. 49-9507 $169. Not sure about BOTP or Dennis Carpenter. I've seen one like that but it had been spliced using two bumpers. (Looked cool though)

Ford never made a bumper like that.

The ony one Ford made has a place for the license plate.

C4TZ-17757-D = 1964/77 F100/350.

If your state doesn't require a front plate, would be kewl!!! Seems you could make one quite easily, just cut a section or two from a donor bumper and use them to replace the license plate section, weld them in, grind the welds, send it to the chrome shop.... While your at it, maybe narrow it up a bit and recontour the corners to fit the front a bit closer... Sure would get people looking!!!! Just cuz Ford didn't make one it doesn't mean one of the aftermarket companies doesn't, just don't think I've ever seen one....

By the way, welcome to FTE!!!! What all are you doing to your truck??

well i will try to get some pics up, but anyways the guy i got it from swaped a hot 460 and built the c6 and painted the truck, but i plan on getting a 70-72 grill on it and a bigger rad and it needs a drivers side mirror but i want the small one not the west coast style and get some kind of power steering but i don't know how i will go about that cuz i have a 460 now and after that i think it will be about done for awhile well im thinking about putting the gas tank under the bed, one so it will hook up better and two well everybody says its safer but i don't care to much and three so that i have room behind the seat for a nice sound system. do yall know how i would go about putting power steering on this truck?

for the ps just find a steering box for your truck. i had to get a pump off of a newer truck to fit the serp setup. then take the hoses and get them custom made. i took the ends in and for $50 had a guy make them up. i might have spent 2 hrs installing everything. and about 4 days finding a guy to make the hoses.lol

you'll also need to get a shorter steering column. i went with the ididit one and got crome and tilt, hazards and it works great.

I would like to know what Rear Bumpers will fit my 1969 F-100 Short Box. Is there any other years that will fit it.
