check out what i picked up today at the junkyard for 25 bucks :drinking: :twisted:
i was down at the yard pulling a tranny for a escort and thought i'd look around. well, came across a 80 and was perfect 8O no dents, no rust 8O
i saw the bumper and pulled it right away and went and hid it. when i went to leave i wanted to show the old man and we walked back there and there was a guy stripping it. he was a asshole. i brought up the bumper missing and he said thats what he came for :lol: :lol: i walked away and i couldn't stop laughing. i'm damn glad i took it off and hid it. i went back this morning with the cash for it..

$25 8O 8O 8O 8O
i don't know if i want to sell it or keep it as a backup :twisted: :twisted:

mine is in good shape but a few bends,looks great at about 10 feet. :lol:

If you sell it how much and do you have the turn signals? I found a place that says the have new ones for $52.35 havent checked into it yet. I find places that say yes we can get certain parts," its in there computer" so I say order it, then they call back and say NLA

Personally, I would keep it. You will probably never find another one in that good of shape and also never know when you will do something stupid like I did. :oops: That was at around 1-2 mph.

i've decided to keep it.

tilted, man that really sucks. i can't believe yours got that much damage at 2 mph 8O. no wonder alot of these have dents in them. do you want another chrome one or are you going to get a paintable one ?

No man, I was lucky enough when building (and destroying 8O ) my truck that you could still get the aftermarket auto parts. I was talking to my friend at a stop light and didnt realize I didnt have the brake pressed all the wayand rolled into the car in front of me! Oops!! I was kind of glad I did it anyway as it was bent from previous when my parents backed into it when I was in High School and then again when this stupid lady pulled out in front of me in my icy apartment parking lot. So it had served its time.
I voted straight bumper on the poll. :D
as it is now!
