Bob Zetnick Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I'm looking to get my bumpers chrome plated and have different kinds of bumper clamp backing plates....I've got repro that are skinny rectangular, have bought some w/ an original set of bumpers that are large rectangular and also have long oval that came with my car back in '71......anyone know if one style is proper to a DA 6?....maybe they used whatever was available in the parts bin?

Bob Zetnick Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 Looks like the 'long oval' / 'football-shaped' one is the winner.......forgot this was already covered in a post a few years ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinneyhill Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 We have just been through this for Canadian DCs. The one Jason was holding up, oval outline with a hollow face, is on the back. The hollow face goes against the support iron, which is locally shaped to fit, i.e. it is made of flat bar except for where the bumpers are bolted to it in the middle with the medallion and spacer.

Bob Zetnick Posted October 25, 2016 Author Share Posted October 25, 2016 Thanks....yes, I have the "football" shaped backing plates and will use them...my '29 DA bumper backing plates and bracket ("iron") is flat however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
