Re: 51 Chev on a S10 frame, named Dale

Ok, time to work on the rear bumper. I plan to make a roll pan, but thought I would start with a bumper. I had a front bumper with the chrome peeling, but it is too curved for the rear, so I decided to be creative. (some would say cheap)

First I straightened it by lowering a loaded snowmobile trailer onto it.

then I cut the ends off and reshaped the ends

then I used some 1.5 inch flat rod and made some bumper brackets

then I used the old pieces of frame that I cut off the rear to make some brackets to attach to the frame

and gave them a quick coat of paint
