72 Roadrunner/Satellite rear bumper guards?

Post by 6o4o » Tue Oct 12, 2004 7:47 am

I just bought a few months ago a bumper set for my 72 RR and let them rechrome. (I didn't see it before because I live overseas) Anyway, I got them a months ago and now I saw that the rear bumper is a bumper guard version with no bumper guards!! They are gone!
Anyone know if they are reproduced, or where to get them or can they maybe be made out of something that is available today?

thnx for any help! they seem hard to find? :(
72 RR GTX, No. matching 440, 68 727, body TX9, B5 interior, got doorsticker, but no buildsheet
72 Satellite 318-Auto, all No.matching, with buildsheet

Both cars tasting now swiss cheese ;)

Did you have your rear bumpers rechromed or exchanged them for a another 1972 rechromed bumper with a core exchange? Your car came with the front and rear bumper guards (option M85). So are you saying the black plastic strips that surround the tail light for 1972 are not there but the holes in the bumper were they would attach are present. I've seen used bumper gaurds on ebay. Though they usually are pretty nicked up after all these years. You might want to email Jimmy Boros to see if he has any guards (he's the guy I buy most of my parts from "specializing in 1971-1972 b-bodies) sixpak71@msn.com
Hope this helps
