Thanks everybody.

Went for day two at the event with several friends along with a buddy and his '67 Chevelle. We setup some shade and made our way through the awesome car-show-kind-of day here in DFW.

Lots of folks came by and noticed the bumper and tailgate all mangled up. Just about all of them asked if that happened at the show!

Had a good day.

We did crawl under it and found that one bumper mount strut was completely curled back on itself and the hitch is likely OK. The frame may have taken a hit. Need to get the bumper out of the way.
Looks like only the outer skin of the gate was damaged.
