Brent when you guys do a bumper like that, is that the finish you send it to be chromed and they finish it or do you get it as close as you can then send it for them to finish? Nice job !

Wayne, I should have taken pics of what I gave them. Pretty much junk for the most part. I gave them all 6 pieces. They stripped them, cut them down, studded them & then welded together. I picked them up for final fitment and made some adjustments. I will take them back in the next couple weeks and then they will do all of the finish work and chrome. They have been great to deal with and lucky for me they are 20 mins away. Not cheap.....But well worth it!

Very nice work. I am along for the ride. I have a 55 wagon project rattling around.

With the rear bumper in place I was able to finish the turndowns for exhaust. Excuse the rusty looking panels! How embarrassing I guess I should have did a little scotchbrite work before the photo session!
