1976 Oldsmobile Rear bumper

Hello. Does anyone have a lead on a rear bumper for my 2-door Cutlass? Right now I am sporting a wooden makeshift bumper and it is quite embarassing!

good luck- my understanding is that the 76 bumpers were rusting before they left the factory...
My 74 didn't have as much trouble..
there are(were) a lot of wooden replacements used on the 76s....

76/77 Supreme 2dr rear bumpers rotted out like mad. The backside rusted something awful. If the car is from a northern region, it's almost a lock that the rear bumper will be toast.

Currently 3 available in US that I know of
Mine us without one of its guards impact strips & it was less fun than you would imagine escortin it up there & not ina big hurry to return it to earth but new technology of rope & pully has proven usefull on fenders

& such
