60-66 rear bumper ideas
I'm trying to come up with an idea for the rear bumper on my 65. Anyone have an idea? Something you have been thinking about, seen somewhere, etc. Pics are a plus.

The truck lays body on 22's and is getting 2 toned red and white.

The coolest bumper idea I have seen was modified a bumper from an early 70's Camaro. I can't find the thread but it was a white step side with a rock music theme and the bed floor was made from licence plates.

Was it a front or rear camaro bumper?

The 67-72 fleetside rear bumper looks great on the 60-66 trucks, and if I recall, you can use the factory 67-72 brackets. It's got a nice factory look, just enough to make people look at it and scratch their heads.

Flip the stock bumper over and run dual exhaust out the center where the license plate notch is.

I really like the 67 camaro bumper. It's understated but still looks custom.

Here's the shot I had. Not sure what you'd do about mounting the tag either though.

Re: 60-66 rear bumper ideas
I kinda like that! Still can't think of a good way to mount the plate either. A powered flip down would be easy. But there has to be another way.

I have a 67-72 bumper on mine with fabbed up brackets. Many people ask if it's upside down.

Re: 60-66 rear bumper ideas
Some previous owner flipped mine upside down.

Re: 60-66 rear bumper ideas
So far i like the Camaro idea best. I plan on making a plate mount on the front of the bed just above the top of the bedsides so the back of the truck is all smooth.

Re: 60-66 rear bumper ideas
I use a Jeep bumper on the back of my 65. It is pulled up tight to the fenders and looks good. Probably a late 90's early 2000's Jeep. Sorry I don't have a picture. This is on a step side bed.

I like that bumper! A little rat rod, a little utilitarian. What did you make it out of and how did you attach it. Cris |
Re: 60-66 rear bumper ideas
I have seen the front bumper put on a step side it looked pretty cool. I have always wanted to put on a roll pan with a license plate pocket and then install the bumper with the license plate dip cut out so that it would be a 2 peace bumper.
