Tokk off the steel bumber and brackets and put on a glass bumper. I also took off the old tow tabs for the tow bar that were still on the car. I saved them in case I ever want to put them back on for the old look . Looks ok without them for now

Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

Did you do both bumpers or just the front? I've been wondering how much I could lose by replacing my bumpers.

Looks good, I love that body style.

I once lost 22 pounds in one day...when I gave birth to an almost 9 pounder.

I think that will be in the plan over the winter

Bill, that was just the front bumper and the bumper brackets but also them old tow tabs that were on the car. The old front bumper and brackets alone were 30 lbs.

Looks good Russ, you need a smaller photo though.
Looks like the car is smiling so it must be happy.

Looks real good. I lost a good bit when I went to a glass hood and aluminum rad. No tow tabs as I drive to the track most of the time. Ron

some people lose that in a good morning sitting...

my 63 is so gutted I doubt that it will weigh 2600 when finished..its back halved and will use aluminum interior pieces..the rest is steel..

I need glass front n rear bumpers for mine..

My good friend Jerry Stein has told me a million times, make the car smile and make the car happy as a happy car sets records, now about that 47 lb weight loss, does Oprah know about that, LOL
