1969 Cutlass Bumper

Hi;
I'm new to this Site. I just bought a 1969 Cutlass Supreme, Holiday Coupe in November. I have been seeking out Options to add to this Car and came across a Dual Exhaust Bumper with a Rubber Strip (VE-1) Option. Can anyone tell me the production numbers or general availability for something like this ? I owned a '68' 30 Years ago and I've never seen one before. Thanks !

I have to admit that I've never seen one in person either. Note that the cutout bumper was only used on the 442s and H/Os that year.

My plan is to continue (improving) the variety of Options on my Car. I'm not concerned about changing it a little because I found it in un-original form to begin with. I spoke with the young Man (40ish) who changed it and I can honestly say I was blown away with his efforts ! My ride now sports an early 70's, all Oldsmobile 455 with C Heads, THB 400 Tranny, and O Series (S9) 12 Bolt Posi Rear End with a 342 gear. It came with Electric Locks, Windows and Power Bucket Seats. It also has ALL of it's original Sheet Metal. Never any Rust ! I get really long winded when it comes to this, so you all have my apologies. I just love this Car.

I hope these Pictures come through. This is the Afternoon I brought it Home. That's me by the Garage and my friend standing behind it. I just picked up a Set(4) of 15 inch SSIII's this morning. It has the 14 inch version with Bolt-on Caps but I'm shelving them for the future.

When you reply make sure you are in “Advanced” If it says post a “Quick reply” hit “Advanced”

Scroll down below the box you type in and hit “Manage Attachments” A new box will pop up.

Hit “Browse”

The hit “Upload” and wait a few secs for the pics to up load. Then close this box.
Next you can hit “Preview Post and your pictures should be there.

There is a size limit on pics

Sorry about this (my), reply. It's not allowing the Pictures to upload even on advanced. I tried to send a zip file and that was also denied. I'll keep working on it !

Don't forget to press the upload button after selecting your files and also pay attention to file size.
