Does someone repop the aluminum brackets or did you make yours?
Also, since AAR sold, who makes the best fiberglass bumpers?

I have a rear bumper here that was made by Larry at Sled City. Got it from a member here and it is pretty darned nice. Talked to Larry and he is making me a front bumper as they have none in stock. If it is as nice as the back one I will be happy! No help on the brackets.

My '65 was 3400 lbs in this picture without the hood, right side fender and bumper. Add those back in and it is a little over 3500.

Interesting thing is that this car has a 50/50 weight distribution when it is complete. Engine is fairly lightweight stroker low deck with batt in the trunk. It also has a Dana 60, big rear tires, weight bar in the trunk, etc.

Jenny Craig reporting:
I don't mind at all since that is the reason we posted the tricks and whistles so that some on here can take it to the next level, especially on Early B's. But it can be applied to almost any other body style to a certain degree.
I used to be highly secretive, even with fellow Moparites back in the day since it was a relatively slow grudge car. LOL.
Wait till you'll see what's in store pretty soon. Art in the making.

I had a 64 Plymouth with a fiberglass front bumper and the current 64 Dodge has both front and rear fiberglass. Would love to make aluminum brackets when I have some time.

64330hemi.

3306 Lbs. That's rather light for a relatively all steel car. I wish my sedan was that light to start with since with all I've done it is now more or less 3100 with out me in it.
I plan to get to the magic 2999 Lbs zone with all metal. That's when I'll be content to pretend to be heavy.
