Uni is short for Unibody. Ad says it's a Unibody rear bumper but Robert says it isn't and he owns a Unibody.

If I'm correct the bumper used on the Unibody is the same used on the styleside from 57 up to 63. It was turned upside down for use on the Unibody. At least that is the story I've been told.

Truck on Mecum site that I pointed to has the same rear bumper as Robert's other than chrome v paint - as far as I can tell. Here it is for a comparison.

So is it likely then that the 62 bumper in the Craigslist ad I posted will bolt up to my 66 (which I’m guessing is not a uni)?

Here a picture of the 1966 rear bumper. You can see there are 4 carriage bolts on top. The one in the ad seems to have 6 bolts across the top. Probably a good chance 4 of them will line up with your brackets. If I say it will likely bolt up and it doesn't would you be mad at me?

It's definitely not identical so it's pretty much a guess if it will bolt right up or not using your brackets. I'd guess yes. Let me know if I'm wrong.....

It appears that some one drilled extra holes in the bumper in that ad. If you look at the bottom you will see the original square hole that is not being used. Not sure what they had that bumper on, so if you have your original bumper brackets, I would say yes it will bolt up, you will just have to plug the extra holes if that bothers you..

1965 Lincoln use different tail lamps than 1969, as the bodies are completely different.

1960 (only) Continental tail lamp lenses were similar to those used on Comets, possibly 1962 or 1963.
