chuckfmtexas Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Just found out the rear bumper on the restored 1969 Riv I bought last May has previous damage that was fixed by brazing. The chrome shop I am using has concerns about re-chroming it after my recent self inflicted tangle with an overhead door steel door frame. I am wondering if one of you Riv folks here has a nice rear bumper laying around waiting to be re-chromed and installed on my 69 Riv. If so, let me know and how much would it be.

kreed Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Chuck CTC auto ranch in Denton has 4 or 5 69 parts cars with bumpers . Not sure how good they are from pictures but they are close to you - might be worth a look. KReec ROA 14549 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckfmtexas Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 Took a look at their web site and they show at least 4 rear bumpers, one loose and 3 still on cars so I will call Monday morning and see if they are still there and if so how much for one. thanks Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ol' yeller Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Make sure it is for a ‘69 and not a ‘68. A mistake I once made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RivNut Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 (edited) On the FB Riviera page, there's some older guy from Oregon who apparently has a ton of parts for '69 Rivieras that he needs to get rid of.

Thanks, I have bought parts from him earlier this year so I called him and ended up buying a nice rear bumper from him as well as other parts. He has a ton of 69 parts.

Thanks Chuck chucknixon67@gmail.com Found a nice core and had it re-chromed. Car is now back to ‘good looking’ and I watch carefully when I am backing up😁 Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
