28 Chrysler

This car is being offered with 'special order brass bumpers'.

Any input on these?

Also what model is it?

Don't know why the image is so small.

here is the link.

No Chrysler ever came with brass bumpers. It states the model as a '72' and it looks to be.

I can't see the picture well enough to be sure what the bumpers are. Most manufacturers didn't offer bumpers as standard until about this time so there were many accessory bumper makers in business. I think that any bumper is 'correct' as long as it is from the same era as the car.

Here you go....the correct 1928 Chrysler bumper is in the second photo....

I'm not at all sure we are looking at a model 72. I don't see the Fisher body tag and there are no vents low down on the cowl. It looks more like a smaller model. Zeke.

I see in my books that it shows Model 72s with and without the lower cowl vent. Not certain now which is correct.

I'm going by my memory of my '28 72 royal sedan. Maybe they came both ways. The car just doesn't look large enough to be a 72. Maybe it's an illusion. If it is a 72 the headlights should be plated. Zeke

The car has a branded title as it was issued via 'statement of applicant' and the brand will expire in February of 2017. I doubt that one would be able to title it outside of Idaho until the brand expires.

I have sent a message to the Oregon DMV and they replied that they want me to call them on Monday.

I kind of like those bumpers, they match the headlight rings, A little polish would wake them up.

The owner tells me that it has the incorrect carburetor and it gives him trouble once in awhile. Also no fuel gauge sender.

This car is a 72. The headlight's wiring runs through the tube that mounts to the frame.

The model 62 had a 3 wire plug on the back of the headlight and did not have the tube below the headlights, also the radiator shell is for the 72.

Those bumpers would have to go.
