Cadillac Nut Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I have this rechromed bumper that I got in a lot of other bumpers. I have asked many people and done a lot of looking online, I can find similar but nothing quite like it. Does anyone here have any idea what it is? Note the ridges on it. I'm stumped...

Cadillac Nut Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 Seemed close but different, what stumped me is the ridges on the top of the bumper and parking light size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadillac Nut Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 Yeah you could call them notches. They really made think it was a station wagon rear bumper or some kind of small truck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really made think it was a station wagon rear bumper or some kind of small truck? The lack of a license plate notch does suggest a wagon, but the GM wagons of that vintage put the tail lights in the bumper, so the light cutouts are much larger. Also, no "notches" on the top.

Cadillac Nut Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 Yeah that is what I found after doing a lot of google searching. I'll offer a $5 reward to anyone who can ID this because I'm lost 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalef62 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 What is the width of the bumper? Small car, midsize, full size? Any stampings on it? That number wrote on the back might be of help to someone who re chromes bumpers. Also, it is possible that the top part of the bumper is covered with rubber to cover the ribs and the face area at the top??? I really am thinking GM of some sort...

Cadillac Nut Posted April 9, 2021 Author Share Posted April 9, 2021 Sorry I didn't see your reply before. This is a small or maybe a medium size bumper. I think it as 65" long when I measured it, I'll measure it again as I don't remember and let you know. I believe it has a 2 or 3 digit number on it. And yes, I am guessing that top has some sort of rubber or plastic covering to cover the ribs. I really think it is 80s GM but I am not sure what it is exactly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
