1971-72 Cutlass front bumper

I am looking for a front bumper for a 1971-72 Cutlass. It does not have to be in good shape. It would need to have the parking light assembly though. I am going to be cutting out the parking light section to use on another car. The bumper will be painted body color so that is why it doesn't need to be perfect.

Please let me know what you have. I live in Windsor Ontario but I do have a US address as well in Detroit, MI.

Thanks!

I've got a stack of bumpers in Oregon. But if your just going to use the parking light sections I'd be willing to cut and ship just the portions you need. Let me know what you think.

Hi John, Great to hear from you. That would be perfect. This is for a friend of mine. I will find out what dimensions he needs and pm those back to you. Do you also have the parking lights too?

I think all the lights I have would need the sockets replaced and the white paint redone. If your friend has the time to restore them I could include a set with the bumper pieces.

That would work. I can help with that. I will get the dimensions over to you soon. Any idea on a price so I can give him a ball park number? Shipping would be to Detroit, MI. Thank you very much for your help John. You are a true pleasure to do business with. I have gotten parts from you in the past and it is always top notch.

Hi John, Sounds great. I talked to Aaron and he said thank you a ton! He says to cut them where the bumper dips down to fit under the grille and wants to know if you could also trim off the outside corner where it fits into the fender?

The address for shipping is.

JH Restorations
100 S. Summit St.
Detroit, MI 48209

Let me know what I owe you and how to get it to you and we will look after ya!

Thanks again.

Joe

Joe, before I start cutting on it here's some pictures. Your welcome to select either one. The one with brackets has more rust on the backside, the one without has more rust on the front side. The one without also has been replated before, I can see where its been straightened and the chrome is flaking. I've also drawn a couple lines where I'm thinking you'd like it cut. I'm pointing with thumb and little finger to the two black lines. Please check out the photos and let me know which one you'd like. Then also if not cut where the black lines are let me know how much to move them in or out from the light bracket. John

Hi John, Let's go with the rusty bumper. Aaron is going to paint it body color when he does the car anyway. Where you have it marked to cut is perfect.

Let me know how you would prefer payment and I will get it out for you.

OK, I'll get the parts cut out and package them up. Please send me a PM or email with the shipping address so I can get that cost for you too.
