I am meeting an engineer from a local metal fab shop in the next few days. Told him that I wanted brackets made for my rear bumper on my 64 330 sedan. They do custom stuff all of the time and are far better equipped to do this work than I am! They will be made from 1/8" aluminum. My question here is what rear bumpers would be the same as my Dodge? Year and model etc. Do you fellas think there would be a market for these? I want to ask him how many sets they would have to make to make this a feasible project. Thanks!! Ted wave

I dropped my originals off at the shop. The prototypes will cost me 80.00 M/L. I told him that they may be popular. Sounds like a price break if he makes at least 10 sets. Let's wait and see what mine look like and we can go from there. wave

The 65 Coronet rear bumper is the same as the 64' so there might be a small market opening there.
The 65' Belvedere/Satellite rear bumpers are different.
Your 64' front bumper of course is all different than any other car.

Thanks for the info! Sounds like it would be a small market for them.
