by pan58head Tue Apr 09, 2013 4:21 pmHello e guys looking for a trashed 61-65 front bumper. I'm using 61-65 front bumpers on my g series. I have two bumpers but one has been welded in the center very poorly. What I'm is looking for is the center of the bumper about 12" or so. Thanks in advance Bob

The change came in 1965, so you are probably looking for 1961-1964 bumper. All four bolt holes are on the front of the bumper. For 1965-1967, two bolt holes are on the front and two are on the top.

The early bumpers stick out farther than the lates,, wouldnt it be much easier to just put a stock 64 bumper back on the truck??? I may have some earlies here,, for sure a stack of lates,,

These bumpers are going on my 64 gmc, yeah a stock bumper would be easier but find a good one is like finding a good stock econoline bumper. I was hoping someone had a junk bumper before I cut up another straight bumper, my buddy has a clean sst for me to cut up

There may be some in a few salvage yards near you. Ayotte's 210 Tiger Hill rd Oxford ME, Blanchard's Greenhill rd Wilton NH, Bernardston Auto Wrecking Turners Falls Rd Bernardston MA. They all had several a while ago but I haven't been there since last summer.
