New Front Bumper For the H/O

I had been looking for a factory original replacement front bumper for a while with no luck when I contacted Frank at Billions & Trillions in OK. He was able to find one, insure its integrity and give it an amazing re-chrome. I put it on the car this weekend and it looks incredible! Two thumbs up for B&T.

Whut? You're about the only person I've heard of who's ever been happy with a purchase from B&T. It's even larger odds than dying from Covid 19 after being vaccinated. Which is miniscule.

Well...I don't know what to say to that. I can only tell of my personal experience.

Not that it matters since your happy but do a search on billions and trillions here and then you'll know what he's talking about.

The bumper looks good, I'm happy you had a smooth transaction. I had one nightmare transaction on chrome parts with B & T. The parts when I got them were chromed to what I would call a 6.5 out of 10. In fact, I ever used them, I still have them. Recently I looked at them, and they actually look like they have deteriorated. The true tests of chrome are weather and time. I remember going in a boneyard in NH about 20 years ago and looking over a 69 car for parts. I saw something chrome and shiny under leaves and muck. It was a 69 Cutlass bumper and the chrome look great still! No rust. On the other hand, I had a rear re-chromed 442 69 bumper I bought from somebody, it was fresh chrome. The shop that painted my car left it outside for a month and a half. I went to get the car and the bumper had a light coat of rust all over it. I had to send it out again. My point? Let me know how it looks in a year or 2. If you only show the car then it might be good. Only time will tell. In any event if you're happy, it's all good.
