WTB, rechromed OEM bumpers for 1971 C10

In mint condition. Thought I'd give this a try. I have bumpers, but seems to me there's not a local service, and California has run all or most of them off. Thank you.

With assys, the guide accts for 1000s details, OEM identifications & part numbers, written in short order. 700+ images of assm., illust., charts, and points of interest. Much of the info. applies to all 67-72 GM trucks, and to a lessor degree all 67-72 GM vehicles. My build thread, and more on the guide https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=730025

I hope you find what you're looking for.

I had mine rechromed at http://www.whitworx.com/

They do top notch work.

What a shame right. Our govt. sends the message rejecting specialty shop economics in favor of chinese junk to fill up our landfills.
